Three-point shooting is all the rage in basketball these days. Savannah State is leading the nation, averaging 39.2 three-pointers per game. Believe it or not, that is down from their 40.2 attempt average last season. The UK basketball team is at the other end of the spectrum. The Wildcats are attempting 14.2 shots from downtown per game this season. Only 7 teams in college basketball attempt fewer perimeter shots so far this season. Last year the Cats averaged almost 20 attempts per game from deep.
