I watch a lot of NBA, seems like they shoot more from the corner than anywhere else, and hit a high percentage. you don't see it as often in college games. wonder why that is.
 
It’s a foot closer in the corners in the NBA.
22-3 vs 23-9
NCAA is only 22-1, so there’s room to fit it in everywhere..
Edit: I played at the old coliseum with the 25-foot thee point line & that was not as easy from straight out or the wings. I’m sure the corners were a little shorter.

didn't realize that. makes sense. to me it would be distracting being so close to out of bounds not a lot of room in the corners
 
Yeah, if you wear a size 12 or bigger you risk stepping on the line. I see at least one of those calls per game.

Especially when you’re a drunk

I hate the nba but i know they shoot a ton of threes so my question is why is woodson not recruiting three point shooters. I thought he was an nba guy.

Because he got fired from the nba for not letting them shoot more threes!

Jk, but the nba changed a lot after his last stint as a head coach.
