Collab with @MonotoneFootbal 🤝 They finally popped this line and it’s a great spot for Trey. Utah plays at a moderate Pace but they have one of the worst 3 point defenses in the league. Utah has allowed the second-most 3s per 100 possessions on the fifth-most attempts. To get even more granular, the Jazz are allowing the most Catch & Shoot 3PM 13 and 2nd Highest efficiency (44%) over their L10 Games. Trey Murphy is shooting 43% from 3 point range and taking 59% of his attempts from long range this season. We love his minutes trending up as well with 28+ in his last 3. It’s a great spot for Trey to drain 3 Treys.
