The Pistons are a surprisingly good 3-point team. They’re only 16th in the league in attempts, but because they’re 3rd in the league in %, they’re 8th in the league in makes. They’re especially dangerous from corner threes, where they take the second most in the league and make 45% of them, which is best in the NBA.
The Jazz completely and totally shut that down. They took only two corner threes all night, and only 14 overall. That second number is actually the lowest total by any team this season.
The biggest reason? Well, the top two 3-point takers on Detroit’s roster were out injured.
