Billy Donovan sounds off on Bulls 3-point shooting after Nuggets loss: ‘You can’t just force that’

Despite their struggles, Billy Donovan said the Chicago Bulls aren’t changing their three-point shooting approach.

It’s been a rough start to the season for the Chicago Bulls. With their loss to the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night, the Bulls moved to 2-5 on the season. Heading into the year, some questioned whether or not they should hit the reset button, and from the way they’ve been playing, the answer could be yes.

One of the biggest areas of struggle for the Bulls has been three-point shooting – a trend that has continued from last season. They shot 7-of-26 (26.9%) from deep against Denver. Through seven games, the Bulls rank 26th in three-point percentage (30.4%) and 28th in three-point makes per game (9.4). However, head coach Billy Donovan isn’t going to change much.

He emphasized that the Bulls aren’t going to shoot threes just for the sake of it.
