TJ Warren is Shooting At Steph Curry’s Level

Former NC State ACC Player of the Year TJ Warren entered the season as the Sun’s sixth man, but his hot shooting hand has forced him back into his familiar starting role.

How good is he shooting?

Warren is shooting at Steph Curry’s level.

In fact, heading into his most recent game on Tuesday night, Warren and Curry were the only two players in the NBA shooting 45%+ from three, 49%+ from the field and 90%+ from the free throw line.

Warren has started the past 4 games, and in that stretch, he is averaging 25.5 points and 5.5 rebounds, while shooting 56% from the field, 46% from three, and 100% from the charity stripe.

On the year, Warren is averaging 17.2 points and 4.2 rebounds per game (13 games), shooting 50.6% from the field, 46% from three and 92.1% from the stripe.

Tony Buckets put in some serious work in the offseason. For perspective, he shot 22% from three last year, and 75.7% from the free throw line.
