Yeah, I like Jared Dudley, and Gary Neal. Because John Wall hasn’t often been surrounded by shooters in D.C.
The result: The Wizards have attempted fewer than 1,500 3-pointers in all but one season over the last five years, in the Optimus Dime Era.
That season was 2013-14, the team’s first playoff cameo in forever. Those Wizards shot 20.8 3-pointers per game, still below league average, but recorded more than 1,700 attempts total. Wall, Bradley Beal, Martell Webster, and Trevor Ariza each made more than 100.
In Wall’s five-year career as a Washington Wizard, however, the team has attempted 3s at a below-league average 17.
