Group 6: The Non-Shooters

13. Jarrett Allen

Performance on catch-and-shoot 3-pointers:

2018-19  –  6-45 (13.3%)

2017-18  –  5-15 (33.3%)

2-season average: 23.3%

Allen is continuing to try and grow his game, as evidenced by the 45 total 3-point attempts he took last season (all catch-and-shoot). He could become a threat from long range down the road, but he’s not there yet.

14. Nic Claxton

Claxton made 26-of-86 (30.2 percent) of his 3-point attempts in his two-year college career at Georgia, including 18-of-64 (28.1 percent) last season. 83.3 percent of these shots were assisted, suggesting almost all his attempts were catch-and-shoot.

Claxton is ahead of where Allen was as a shooter entering his rookie season, but the longer NBA 3-point line will surely be an adjustment for him.

15. DeAndre Jordan

Jordan hasn’t taken any catch-and-shoot 3-pointers over the last two seasons and has only made 1-of-11 long-range shots in his entire 11-year NBA career. Suffice to say, he’s the worst shooter on Brooklyn’s roster.
