Orlando Magic vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
Kenny Ducey: So far, volume has continued to go Tre Mann's way. He's seen a steady dose of minutes with over 27 per game, and with Josh Giddey out, he's taken a few more shots. In the last three contests, which Giddey has missed, Mann has averaged 15 attempts from the field and six from beyond the arc, making two on average.
Mann has gone for two or more 3s in four of his six games, and I'm going to back him to do that again. It's not as if he's an incredible shooter, standing at 35.1% for his career, but he's taking more 3s this season with six per game (he took 4.5 on average last season), and we can also feel somewhat confident about the second-year man out of Florida after he shot 40.2% in his final year on campus. It's clear he can shoot, and he's simply trying to establish that in the NBA with increased volume.
