The way that the game of basketball is being played in the NBA right now has changed beyond recognition over the last few years or so. Nowadays, most players heavily rely on shooting well from beyond the three-point line and chuck a lot of three-pointers.
This transition has made some old-school coaches, such as Gregg Popovich, very angry. But it is something that the entire league has now adapted to, and every NBA franchise today wants to have elite players who can shoot well from deep. However, it doesn’t mean there aren’t players who struggle to shoot from deep.
