There’s no way to sugarcoat things. The 2021-22 Washington Wizards cannot shoot. It’s been arguably the most glaring weakness that the team has displayed throughout an otherwise pleasant first quarter of the season.
Yes, the Wizards have had a penchant for making threes during crunch time situations. Spencer Dinwiddie and Kyle Kuzma have generated what has felt like a year’s worth of clutch threes already. But that only means the team has shot even worse during the normal ebb and flow of games.
Washington ranks 9th in the NBA in clutch 3PT percentage at 35.
