It’s time to give credit where credit is due: Sahvir Wheeler is shooting lights out from three this season, and he’s doing so on solid volume.

Known over the course of his career as a below-average shooter — if not a liability in that regard — the 5-foot-9 point guard closed out his junior campaign by shooting over 40 percent in league play. Mind you, that was after starting the season hitting just 4-23 attempts from deep, good for just 17.
