Raptors coach says team needs to shoot more 3-pointers

Lowry averages five long distance attempts per game and his presence should loosen up defences, Raptors coach says.

Raptors will benefit from the return of their biggest three-point threat, Kyle Lowry.

The three-point shot is one of the best weapons an NBA team can possess in this era of the game and Raptors coach Dwane Casey wants to see more of them.

The Raptors began play Friday night ranked 22nd of 30 NBA teams in three-pointers attempted, averaging just 24.3 per game and the coach is worried his players are simply turning down too many chances.
