After a tough spell of three-point shooting following his trad to the Milwaukee Bucks at around this time last year, George Hill was something of a revelation from deep in the playoffs.
Hill, at times, looked like the team’s second best player in the postseason, but it was his shooting that really acted as something of a pleasant surprise. Having shot just 28 percent from distance on 2.7 attempts per game over the course of 47 contests in the regular season, Hill made 41.7 percent of his 3.2 triples per game during Milwaukee’s playoff run.
To those of a Bucks persuasion, that may not have been anticipated, but the truth is that it was actually Hill’s regular season shooting last year that was the real outlier in terms of his recent success rate from deep.
