In the past three games, Lewis is averaging 10 points on 57.9% shooting, three assists to 1.3 turnovers, and one steal in 20.8 minutes. In Wednesday’s loss to Chicago, he tallied 14 points and four assists in 24 minutes. In the second quarter, he made the Bulls pay for going underneath a ball screen by burying a pull-up jumper. It was one of two off-the-dribble 3s he connected on. Because he’s such a blur, Lewis is likely to get defended this way a lot. He said pull-up 3s are something he works on every day in practice. “It’s something I’ve been doing ever since I’ve been playing basketball,” Lewis said. “When I get a good rhythm, get into my shot and follow through, I always feel like it’s going to go in.”
