Here's something Big Ten hoops fans learned quickly this season: Michigan freshman Nik Stauskas can shoot. Like really well. Through his first 12 games, the sharpshooter is nailing 51 percent of his shots, including 56 percent from distance (34-of-61).
You should see him shoot with nobody guarding him. Lucky for us, Stauskas decided to show off his 3-point accuracy in a YouTube video. It happened today, on Christmas Eve, as Stauskas attempted to hit 45 of 50 treys (90 percent) outside in the elements. He succeeded, of course.
The way Stauskas shoots, if it hits the rim, it should count as a miss.
