Among the 174 NBA players who entered Thursday with at least 90 three-point attempts this season, Kel'el Ware’s three-point shooting percentage ranks third behind only Memphis Grizzlies guard Cam Spencer and Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis. And among the 23 centers around the NBA who have put up at least 70 threes this season, Ware ranks first. “I want to be open to the development of our young players,” Spoelstra said when asked about Ware’s impressive outside shooting. “Like I said in training camp, there is an element of unknown. But I want there to be some surprises. I want guys to improve. I want them to gain confidence as the season goes on. Young players, it doesn’t happen for every single one of them at the exact same time. And it doesn’t happen as linear growth. So I want to be open to that growth.
