When the Clippers re-signed Luke Kennard roughly 18 months ago, it was yet another shooter who got paid in the NBA. But how has he stacked up to his contemporaries since then?
The NBA marketplace for free agents is constantly evolving, constantly shifting. One year we might see centers get paid a hefty sum because of how good their counterparts are. Another year we might see perceived 3-and-D wings get the proverbial bag.
But what took place roughly a year ago really was eye-opening. Shooting took center stage. If you were an above-average 3-point marksman, you got handsomely rewarded for it.
