Question regarding why is the 3FG only worth one point?

My last game (scrimmage) my SG had 13-28 in FG (26 points) He had 4-13 for 3FG ( 12 points) and one point for FT. Should this not add up to 39 points? His game total was 31 points as the 3FG counted only 1 point.

Thanks.

The 13-28 includes the 4-13. So, essentially, he was 9-15 on two point shots, and 4-13 on three point shots, for 18+12 = 30 points, plus 1-2 FT = 31 total points.

FG is field goal so that includes both 2 pts and 3 pts. 3PT column just shows how much 3's are made/attempted from total FG made/attempted.

3's * 4 = 12 pts (4/13)
2's * 9 = 18 pts (9/15)
+1 free throw = 31 pts
