However, this is clearly too difficult for Davis.
He can quickly defend from the free-throw line to the three-point line, but you expect him to go from the low post to the three-point line?
Unless Jokic hesitates, he's definitely not going to make it.
In fact, Jokic didn't hesitate at all. Upon noticing no one was coming to help defend him, he already raised his hand and took the three-point shot.
"Swish!"
With a crisp sound, Jokic's three-pointer hit the mark.
The Cavaliers' other players have been underperforming this season, but that hasn't affected Jokic's improvement.
Besides increased low-post dominance, his outside shooting has been outstanding this season.
Last season, he averaged 1.6 three-point attempts with a 32.4% success rate.
But this season, his attempts have increased significantly to 3.7, and his success rate is 39.6%.
These numbers, for a center, are more than just excellent.
