In response to LionFan
That's the thing, though. The reason the mid-range is dying is because you don't come close to making up the points.
Last year, the average 3PT% was 34.7% while the average jumper make rate was about 36%. You'd need that to be north of 50% for it to be worth it to the average player. There are case-by-case exceptions to this, but they are the exception, not the rule, and the rule is: don't take mid-range shots unless you have to.
As for Stefanini, he's a proven scorer and producer on the offensive end. That has a lot of value. The key question will be can he defend at the Division I level. If he can passably, he'll be a plus player in our league.
