Calculate three-point shots:
Three-point shots = Three Pointers / 2
Three-point shots = 33/3
Three-point shots = 11
Calculate free-throw shots:
Free throw shots = Free throws / 1
Free throw shots = 8/1
Free throw shots = 8
Calculate total shots:
Total shots = Two-point shots + three-point shots + free throws
Total shots = 19 + 11 + 8
