This is happening in every sport, but it’s definitely exaggerated in basketball. In football, a 50 yard field goal used to be a risky attempt, but now every back up kicker in the league can nail 55 yarders and give a 60 yarder a good try. Baseball has unlocked the math of launch angles (and defensive shifts) which have changed the game. But in the NBA, there isn’t much to do outside of fundamentally changing the game by altering the dimensions of the playing area.
