In contrast to last year's 2.3 rate, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's failed 3-point shots have jumped this year to 3.8 per game.The matchup against Phoenix is a hard one for 3-pointers; when the Suns are the visiting team, the opposition's starting PGs have averaged the least 3-point shots per game in the league this year (1.6).The Suns have played at the 4th-slowest pace-of-play in the NBA away from their home stadium this year, which should lead to fewer opportunities for the Thunder.
