1. IMPROVED SHOT SELECTION
The biggest difference is Wiggins is eschewing one of the least-efficient shots — long two-pointers, defined here (gray area on court) by anything between 16 feet and the three-point-line — in favor of more three-pointers. That's significant because NBA players on average made 40.1% of long twos last season and 35.5% of threes — meaning the shot value of a long two is 0.802 points per shot (.401⊗2) but the value of a three is 1.065 points per shot (.355⊗3).
