What happened: Tristan da Silva has opened the preseason in strong offensive form. He scored 19 points against Memphis on Oct. 9.

Why it matters: Head coach Sean Sweeney has given him the green light from deep entering 2026-27. Before this preseason, he had attempted nine threes in a game twice in 151 games.

By the numbers: 19 points vs. Memphis on Oct. 9; three straight preseason games with 10-plus three-point attempts.

What to watch: Watch whether the high-volume perimeter role holds through the rest of the preseason.
