Payton Pritchard has become one of NBA’s elite 3-point shooters with the Boston Celtics
Backup Boston Celtics combo guard Payton Pritchard has become one of the NBA’s elite 3-point shooters this season. So far, his offensive transformation as a nearly limitless threat from beyond the arc has transformed the the University of Oregon alum into not only the leading 2025 Sixth Man of the Year candidate, but a realistic option to win the league’s 2025 Most Improved Player award as well.
Just how significant of a development is this for Boston’s hopes to repeat as champs? The hosts of the CLNS Media “Celtics Beat” podcast, Adam Kaufman and Evan Valenti, linked up with “Garden Report” pod cohost Bobby Manning to talk it all over.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about Fast PP’s 3-point evolution.
