How can the Spurs get DeMar DeRozan to let it fly from behind the arc?

In a season full of frustrations, few things have been as consistent for the San Antonio Spurs as DeMar DeRozan‘s refusal to shoot three-pointers. As the season has progressed we have seen DeRozan continue to utterly ignore shots from behind the arc. Is there anything the San Antonio Spurs can do to convince him to change that?

DeRozan’s hesitancy to shoot three-pointers is nothing new. He’s averaged just 1.5 three-point shots per game throughout his career. That being said, he’s almost completely abandoned the idea of shooting three’s for the Spurs.

In his first season in San Antonio, DeRozan attempted just 45 shots from behind the arc in 77 games.
