Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard is shooting 16-for-85 from the three point in his last 11 games (18.8%).
Lillard has missed 17 consecutive three-pointers over the last three games, is 2-for-30 from three in his last four games.
Per The Oregonian, Stuck in the worst shooting slump of his NBA career, Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard says there is only one solution to his funk.
"I just have to keep shooting the ball,'' Lillard said. "That's pretty much it.''
Overall from the field in the last 11 games Lillard is shooting 35.7 percent (75-for-210).
"It's funny because it feels good when I shoot it,'' Lillard said Thursday after he went 6-for-15 from the field and 0-for-5 from three-point range in the Blazers' 108-87 win over Phoenix. "I think it's just one of those stretches I'm having, and the ball isn't going in.''
