The three-point shooting is impressive and a clear indication of how far Precious Achiuwa has come in three-quarters of a season with the Raptors.
Here’s a guy who attempted one three in his rookie NBA season with the Miami Heat in 2020-21 — he missed it — or 104 fewer than he hoisted in his first 61 games with the Raptors. He was riding a streak where he was almost 50 per cent (20-for-42) from distance over 12 games heading into Toronto’s game in Philadelphia on Sunday night.
It’s a testament to hard work, unfailing self-confidence and the freedom from his coaches and teammates to let fly as long as the shots are in the rhythm of the game.
