Tre Johnson is struggling from three. So are the Wizards
DETROIT — Tre Johnson is an elite shooter. It’s why the Washington Wizards selected him No. 6 in the 2025 draft. But his jump shot hasn’t clicked at the start of the 2026-27 season.
Johnson scored two points on 1-for-8 shooting in Monday’s 122-111 loss to the Detroit Pistons just two days after shooting 2-for-15 in a 114-75 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Johnson missed all 13 of his 3-point attempts in those contests.
He is shooting 35.1% from the field through 11 games. His 24.5% 3-point percentage is the second-worst in the NBA among players with at least 50 3-point attempts this season, trailing only Ace Bailey’s 22.6%.
