Trae Young is doing exactly what Wizards need despite shooting woes
Key points
- Trae Young, known for his prolific three-point shooting, has struggled with accuracy this season, shooting under 40 percent from the field and just over 30 percent from beyond the arc.
- Despite these shooting woes, the Wizards point guard has been instrumental in Washington's early-season success, leading the league in assists (11.3 per game) and ranking highly in points created (47.7 per game) and rim assists (7.0).
- Young's low turnover rate (2.3 per game) and playmaking ability have been crucial for the 2-1 Wizards, who are looking to climb the Eastern Conference standings.
