The Thunder’s new big man has untapped potential from behind the 3-point line.
on a mega deal. The Thunder cruised to the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference and swept a playoff series, but seemed to be missing front court depth all season long. One of the only qualms with this young Thunder team was a lack of rebounding and a need for a physical presence inside.
One thing that seems to be flying under the radar with his addition is his potential outside shooting impact. Hartenstein wasn’t able to showcase it in New York, likely because of the strict offensive flow, but he has a bit of promise regarding his outside shot. In 2022-23, Los Angeles allowed him to experiment with his jump-shot and the small sample size return was promising. He was 14-of-30 from 3-point range, amounting to an impressive 46.7% from behind the line. Many of those shots were taken when the game was way out of reach, but the experiment still seems promising. In clips of his outside jumper, the motion looks fluent and the shot looks clean.could work wonders in the evolution of his 3-point shot.
