Blazers must brace for Toumani Camara’s shooting regression

Writer Orel Dizon argues that the Portland Trail Blazers must prepare for forward Toumani Camara's hot 3-point shooting to eventually regress. Camara has started the 2026-27 NBA season leading the team in 3-point volume and efficiency, hitting 4.0 triples per game at a 51.3 percent clip. This unexpected production has helped Portland maintain one of the league's top-rated offenses alongside Deni Avdija and Damian Lillard.

Dizon warns that maintaining such efficiency over a full season is historically improbable. With Ja Morant currently sidelined and Scoot Henderson entering the starting lineup, the author contends that any sharp shooting drop-off could compromise floor spacing and force the Blazers to diversify how they utilize Camara offensively.
