Through five NBA seasons with the Phoenix Suns, Deandre Ayton has attempted just 80 shots from beyond the 3-point line.
However, that rate may change when he takes the floor for the Portland Trail Blazers.
“We’ve been experimenting with a lot of things,” Ayton said. “He’s giving me the green light to be free shooting the three ball as well, making me put the ball on the ground as well and just create.”
Last year, the Blazers saw an uptick in 3-point attempts from their center Jusuf Nurkic, but with a new player in the mix, could come new possibilities.
