One of the biggest issues with the Knicks last season was their 3-point volume, where they ranked 27th in the league. If their offense is going to take a step forward this year, they are going to have to generate more threes, and Bridges is the key to doing it.
Bridges prefers to operate in the mid-range, where he was one of the league's most accurate shot-makers last season. Among players who took at least 150 field goals inside the 3-point line and outside of the paint, Bridges ranked fifth with a field goal percentage of 49.3, according to league tracking data.
