What changed

Last season (2025-26)
Above-the-break 3 share+14 ptsProbably real

Buzelis's above-the-break 3 share is up 14 points over his 46 games since Dec 29 (42% vs 28%). The likely reason: Coby White (29 MPG before) left the team, plus 3 more key players out. Also a new teammate: Collin Sexton joined the rotation on Feb 7 and played 25.9 MPG. Probably real: about 70% should hold.
