WBB: Impact of moving the 3-point line - thedish - 03-10-2022

I'd been wondering about the effect that moving the three-point line back has had on play this year.  Here is an interesting article that looks at changes in shooting percentage as well as some other parts of the game.

Thanks for sharing this post. It provides more info than just three point shooting statistics. Reading the data on players stepping out of bounds more was interesting as well.

Very interesting read.  I was going to say that the biggest difference I notice are the number of times they step out of bounds, but the article beat me too it!  Nice to know I was not imagining things.
