When does three point shooting become a concern?

Right now your team and mine, the Xavier Musketeers, are shooting 23.8% behind the arc. That is remarkably poor. It is, in fact, unsustainably bad. In 2019 13-19 Jackson State possessors of one of the worst offenses in the nation, came dead last with a 27.9% three point percentage last season. Xavier isn’t going to do that, and they really aren’t likely to come close.

So historical futility isn’t likely, but that doesn’t mean that the Musketeers shooting isn’t an issue. Right now Xavier has the 16th most efficient offense in the nation. X doesn’t turn it over, dominates inside, and plays to its strengths.
