Wizards guard Tre Johnson named ahead of Collin Murray-Boyles and Egor Demin with Don Knueppel leading the way. Johnson has made at least two 3PTs in six of his last seven games and gets a chance at revenge with the loss vs. Denver last week marking one of six games without a 3PT this season
Shooting is arguably the most important single skill a player can possess in the modern NBA -- and Johnson has that skill in abundance. The 19-year-old is making 39% of his 5.3 3-point attempts per game, and he has been just as efficient on pull-up attempts (40%) as catch-and-shoot tries (39%). Johnson has also benefited from greater opportunities since the Wizards traded for Trae Young, not because Young is feeding him pinpoint passes yet -- the former Hawks guard hasn't made his Wizards debut -- but because losing CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert in the deal means more playing time for Washington's youngsters. Johnson's four highest-minute games of the season (31 minutes once, 30 minutes three times) have all come in the week since the trade.
