"Carrington's struggles have raised the eye brows of several basketball minds across the league and the main reason for that is due to the bizarre shooting slump the guard's currently in. The playmaker's success as a rookie came fro his efficiency in the mid-range game, In turn, the biggest weakness Carrington flashes was his underwhelming shooting from beyond the arc."
"Fast forward to this season, the ACC standout has turned his three point shooting around in a major way knocking down 43.3% of his attempts from beyond the arc. However, his field goal range as a whole has decreased majorly shooting 35.2% from the floor due to his struggles from the mid-range game. To make matters worse, the guard's inability to get downhill more effectively as he suggested he focused on this offseason has made his impact more limited than expected."
Bub Carrington entered the season poised to claim primary ball-handling duties after a solid rookie year capped by a game-winning shot against Miami. Early-season performance has fallen short of expectations and provided evidence he may not be the long-term answer at point guard. Observers, including draft evaluators, have questioned his role in Washington. The guard's current slump centers on a bizarre collapse in mid-range efficiency despite a jump to 43.3% from three. Overall field-goal percentage has dropped to 35.2%, and a continued inability to get downhill has limited his on-court impact.
