Luka Dončić’ Is Finding His Rhythm Behind the Three-Point Line
Welcome to the Morning Shootaround, where every weekday you’ll get a fresh, topical column from one of SI.com’s NBA writers: Howard Beck on Mondays, Chris Mannix on Tuesdays, Michael Pina on Wednesdays, Chris Herring on Thursdays and Rohan Nadkarni on Fridays.
The closest part of Luka Don\u010di\u0107’s offensive repertoire that’s even in the ballpark of being referred to as a defect is his three-point shot. He made 32.7% of them as a rookie and 31.6% during his second season. Strip garbage-time tries from the equation and Don\u010di\u0107 finished in the 36th and 24th percentile at his position, respectively, in both categories.
