I spoke a little bit [Tuesday] of how I put a little bit of strain, because it gives us the ability to play big and small. And there was a stretch where we just missed him, so we had to run Royce [O\u2019Neale] a little bit longer, he ends up playing 38, 39, 40 minutes. So it puts a strain on the group overall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watanabe, who was leading the league in 3-point percentage (.571) and true shooting (.781), played with the Raptors from 2020-22.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"654\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Yuta-Watanabe.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Yuta Watanabe puts up a shot during the Nets' win over the Grizzlies earlier in the season.\" class=\"wp-image-24775312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Yuta-Watanabe.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Yuta-Watanabe.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Yuta-Watanabe.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/Yuta-Watanabe.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Yuta Watanabe puts up a shot during the Nets\u2019 win over the Grizzlies earlier in the season.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Corey Sipkin<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s the best shooter in the world right now,\u201d Kyrie Irving said of Watanabe. \u201cThe stats prove it right now. He\u2019s the best shooter in the best league in the world right now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo we just want him to remain confident and shoot the opportunities that he gets out there. He makes the game a lot easier and we have guys that are willing to sacrifice their body night-to-night, we want to reward them, especially when they\u2019re shooting the ball.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>Raptors coach Nick Nurse watched as Watanabe became a fan favorite in Toronto, but never quite stayed on the floor long enough to fulfill his potential.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s shooting it really well this year. He\u2019s right at the top of the league in terms of 3-point shooting percentage. That\u2019s pretty good. That\u2019s pretty good,\u201d Nurse said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[He gave us] a lot of what you\u2019re seeing he provides there. He\u2019s a utility player, plays hard, runs and cuts and shoots, a good complementary piece to an offense because he understands spacing and cutting very well. Never quite shot the ball as well with us as he is with the Nets this year, and never stayed very healthy with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe had some really good moments where it looked like he was trending. \u2026 He came out of preseason last year really playing well and looking like he\u2019s going to be a big part of the rotation and then goes down with an injury and finally got that corrected about December started playing well again, then he got COVID. Just kept running into a roadblock with us was probably the biggest thing. But very, very good team player and provides a lot of little things for a team.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>In addition to Watanabe, Seth Curry (left ankle) and T.J. Warren (left foot) were out for the Nets.<\/p>\n<p>Warren hasn\u2019t played since signing this summer, but he is getting closer to being cleared for full practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s done one-on-one, he\u2019s done three-on-three versus other players,\u201d Vaughn said. \u201cI missed the last workout but he\u2019s definitely playing against other players now, so he\u2019s definitely taken that progression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fred VanVleet (non-COVID illness) and Scottie Barnes (knee) were out for Toronto.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Ben Simmons, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, O\u2019Neale and Nic Claxton started for the Nets. Claxton told The Post his \u201cnon-COVID illness\u201d was just a cold, and he should be free to have his minutes expanded.\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
