Marquette University is leading the NCAA in three point field goal percentage this season at 43.4%. Coach Buzz Williams has a good idea as to why this is getting done:
"I definitely have a strong belief in numbers - if you study them in an objective way," said coach Buzz Williams. "We have never mentioned a specific number of threes, or what our percentage has been recently. However, we constantly stress paint touches and creating for others. We believe the combination of those two things will typically turn into a good shot for our team."
"I'm not sure if we have a team full of shooters, but I think we have developed into a team that understands the foundation of a good shot."
