Wells proposes three point zones to change basketball
Wells outlines a scoring scheme dividing the court into three zones. Shots within 10 feet count one point, within 20 feet two points, and outside 20 feet three points. Four shots stay unchanged. Centers dunk but earn one. Long range shooters benefit with three points. Zones marked by lines from the baseline under baskets.
