How Davis Bertans crafted one of the best shooting seasons in NBA history coming off the bench

“Davis (Bertans) is a player that will add depth to our frontcourt with his shooting ability, basketball IQ and work ethic.”

That was Wizards general manager Tommy Sheppard on July 6, 2019, the day the team announced the acquisition of the sharp-shooting stretch forward from the Spurs. Just over one calendar year later, Bertans has burst onto the scene as one of the best 3-point shooters in the league coming off one of the most prolific off-the-bench shooting seasons of all time.

Bertans, who will not participate in the season’s restart in Orlando, finished the season with exactly 200 3-pointers made, which ranks seventh in the league, but first among all reserve players.
