The Spurs come into today's game ranked just 25th in scoring at 112.1 points per contest. Across their last five games, the unit is averaging 108 points per game. San Antonio's offensive struggles can partly be attributed to their season three-point shooting numbers. So far, they have hit 34.4% of their threes, placing them 25th in the league. If they can improve their efficiency from downtown, they could move up the league's scoring rankings, as they are already an above-average team in terms of pace (3rd).
