What happened
The Portland Trail Blazers have added players this summer but failed to improve their poor three-point shooting, a key weakness from last season. This shortfall could hinder stars like Deni Avdija and Ja Morant, who rely on spacing to be effective. Despite a high volume of three-point attempts last year, Portland ranked near the bottom in shooting percentage, and recent signings do not address this issue.

- 05The Blazers’ roster moves may have worsened their three-point shooting problem.
