A look at three key numbers related to Saturday’s game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse between New Orleans and Indiana (6 p.m. Central, Bally Sports New Orleans, 100.3 FM):
1: Lone NBA player who officially qualifies for the league’s three-point percentage leaders and has made more than half of his attempts from beyond the arc in 2021-22. Shockingly to some around the NBA, that man is Jonas Valanciunas, who stands alone with a success rate of 55.3 percent, having connected on 21 of his 38 tries. The native of Lithuania produced a career-best perimeter-shooting performance Friday in a home win against the Clippers, sinking five treys out of nine attempts.
