Injuries have hurt the percentage based solely on Karaban's finger.  Throw in Spencer's feet vs Kansas and I think the percentage goes up a few ticks.

Ball is interesting.  Fun fact for him.  In the four games against ranked opponents (UT, KU, Zags, UNC) he is 6 of 11 from three.  In the other games he is 6 of 32.  No clue why that is, but it is interesting.

Diarra is not a great 3PT shooter but he's only taken 15 this year, so his percentage will vary wildly.  He's 4 of 15, for 26.7%, but one more make would put him at 33%.  His number of takes really makes his percentage inconclusive at best.  Especially because I know at least four of those shots were last second of shot clock/half shots that he missed where he was passed the ball as a bail out.

EDIT
This team's guards are also much better than last year's team overall at attacking the rim.  Hawkins was not great near the rim.  Jackson was good out of the dunker's spot but a bit pass happy at times.  So a lower percentage from three is OK.
