Utah Jazz players call for Georges Niang to participate in 3-Point Contest

When the Utah Jazz went into the offseason this past summer, their goal after watching clanked shot after clanked shot in the playoffs against the Houston Rockets was to add more shooting to bolster their offense. Well, at nearly the halfway point of the season, I’d say they’ve done quite an exceptional job as the Jazz just so happen to lead the league in 3-point percentage at an incredible 39.2 percent.

That is an absolutely scorching figure that has the Jazz offense looking truly dangerous. And it may come as a surprise to some, but the player that just so happens to be leading the pack in three-point percentage for the team is none other than Georges Niang.
