RJ Barrett’s three-point shooting is becoming a problem

This was supposed to be RJ Barrett’s breakout season.

At least, the New York Knicks and their fans certainly expected it to be. I mean, it certainly looked like a breakout was coming. Barrett dropped 26 points and hit all three of his three-point attempts in the season opener against the Pacers last month and showed marked improvement. I even wrote about how his step into stardom was coming.

Three weeks into the NBA season, and Barrett is once again streakier than a Pollock at the Museum of Modern Art.
