Otto Porter Jr. has quietly been one of the most effective 3 - point shooters in the entire NBA so far this season, as he shooting an impressive 45 percent from long range. But over the past three weeks, Porter has been shooting better than he has all season. During Thursday's 23 - point performance against New York, Porter did most of his damage from long range, shooting 6 - of - 10 from behind the arc. Now, in his last three contests, Porter has made 15 of his 23 3 - point attempts, giving him an incredible mark of 65 percent. That effective shooting from downtown has led to him averaging 20 points per game in that three - game stretch, making for one of Porter's most effective stretches of the season - - a season that may be the breakout year the Wizards have been waiting on since drafting the Georgetown star No. 3 overall.
