more PT leads to getting in more of a rhythm and a higher shooting %

It's an interesting question. I think it's more of a chicken or egg type problem. Did more minutes help the player settle and thus improve his shot or did the player learn how to shoot/get shots he can make and therefore earn more playing time?

For example, after his rookie year, Ryan Anderson put up basically the same numbers he had this year with 14mpg and 22mpg the two previous seasons.
