LAS VEGAS – Despite his team’s shooting issues over the year, Wolf Pack coach Eric Musselman gave his players the green light to shoot threes if they were quality shots. That green light was recently revoked.
“We kind of have adjusted during the year,” Musselman said. “I gave them the green light through 25 games and of late it’s been more, ‘Guys, we can’t take 25 threes. It’s insane. We’re 350 out of 351 Division I teams (in 3-point percentage). I can’t keep get text messages from my coaching buddies asking why we’re launching threes knowing the result.
