We've all heard how great Kansas State's 3-point defense is this season. The numbers tell us opponents are shooting just 27.6% from beyond the arc, fifth-best in the country. But is the Wildcats' 3-point defense really that good?
Just using the eye test, we can all likely agree Bruce Weber's team does a reasonable job of closing out on shooters and of course, they don't play a lot of standard zone, so opponents don't typically get a ton of great looks that way. K-State doesn't have extraordinary size or length, but Wesley Iwundu certainly makes it better and there aren't any noticeably undersized players on the perimeter.
