Kyle Kuric needs a three-pointer in a month and 4 days, he’s 0/18 in 8 games
Kyle Kuric is going through a period of deformation, as a result of which he has not scored a three-pointer in an official game for 34 days and has recorded 0/18 three-pointers in 8 games.
It was April 27 when Kyle Kuric came off the screen and scored a three-pointer in his team’s 66-75 win in Barcelona’s game against Bayern Munich, scoring 61-75. He didn’t know it at the moment, but this was the last three-pointer that would be targeted for the next…month.
The American guard then missed a three-pointer he attempted and ended the match with 1/6 three-pointers. A month and 4 days have passed since then. And Kuric hasn’t managed to score a three-pointer since!
It sounds unbelievable but one of the best shooters on the European turf scored 0/18 three-pointers in the following 8 games in Game 3 with Bayern Munich: 0/4 in Game 4 in Munich on April 29 and another 0/14 three-pointers -Points in May in the 7 games of Barcelona. Here is the corresponding shot table:
Of course, as you can see, Kuric generally went through that time…an ugly moon. Overall, the American has averaged just 2.1 points and 1.5 rebounds in Barcelona’s last 8 games with 50% in doubles, 0% in trebles and 60% in shots in 14 minutes of participation. The last time he shot far behind the three-point line was on April 24, when he had 10 points with 3/4 threes in the 69-65 win over Tenerife.
That doesn’t mean Barcelona opponents will suddenly treat Kuric like a bad shot though. Although this year, with 35.2% in three-pointers in the Spanish championship and EuroLeague (in a total of 70 games), he shoots into a number that doesn’t quite represent him.
The fact that one of the best shooters in Europe has been without a three-pointer for the past 34 days is certainly news. It remains to be seen if the…eruption will come at some point. History has shown that the numbers eventually even out.
