The Cleveland Cavaliers came into the 2022-23 campaign with the intention of joining the League-wide three-point shooting revolution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the first six games of the young season, Cleveland ranks first in three-point accuracy and fourth in made triples per game. Nearly 40 percent of Cleveland’s total points have come from beyond the arc, ranking them around other analytically driven teams like Boston, Utah, and Indiana. The Cavs are also the fifth-most accurate team from the corner and second-best at hitting threes from above-the-break<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While Cleveland continues to thrive from beyond the arc, they’ve nearly erased mid-range jumpers from their shot profile. As of Tuesday, Cleveland is shooting mid-range shoots five percent of the time, tied for 25th in the NBA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It’s all about our spacing,” Dean Wade<\/a> told cleveland.com<\/a>. “Our spacing is unbelievable. There are so many open shots, and it’s obviously a lot easier to hit shots when you’re open. We just let the ballhandler make plays and find open windows. Our confidence is super high. Everyone put in a lot of work this summer. The coaches believe in us. That raises our confidence too.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n *sound on*
