SAN FRANCISCO — RJ Barrett’s shooting hit another funk. The efficiency dipped to unsightly percentages.

Still, the latest Knick to ink a nine-figure contract said Friday that he has no plans to decrease his volume of attempts. He also dared the opposition to keep leaving him wide open.

“It’s an easy bucket, in my opinion,” Barrett said, “so I’d rather them do that.”
