Three-pointers made: 575 Three-pointers attempted: 1337 Three-point percentage: 43% During the 2011-2012 season, Novak was the NBA regular-season leader in three-point percentage. He was both a small forward and a power forward, who won the ESPN college three-point shooting contest in 2006. Novak memorably scored a game-winning three-pointer in 2008 against the Sacramento Kings to win the game by two with just seconds left to the game. A move that kept the Rockets’ historic 22-game winning streak alive.
That was his only basket in the entire game. He also scored a three-pointer at the buzzer while playing for the Clippers in 2009, which helped them beat the Nets by two.
Joe Harris
Three-pointers made: 602 Three-pointers attempted: 1422 Three-point percentage: 42.3% In 2018, while playing for the Brooklyn Nets, Joe Harris made a 3-pointer in his 25th straight game, moving into sole possession of fourth place on the Nets' career list. In December of the same year, while playing the Phoenix Suns, Harris made three 3-pointers, making him the first player in franchise history to make three or more in six straight games.
In 2019, he scored his personal best seven 3-pointers against the Toronto Raptors and won the NBA Three-Point Contest during All-Star weekend. During the playoffs, he shot 4-of-21 from the 3-point range over the five games.
B.J. Armstrong
Three-pointers made: 436 Three-pointers attempted: 1026 Three-point percentage: 42.5% Winning three NBA championships during his time with the Chicago Bulls, B.J. Armstrong claimed the NBA's three-point field goal percentage crown with a mark of .453 on 63-for-139 shooting in the 1993 season.
He got a chance to shine after Michael Jordan’s surprise retirement in 1994 and finished second in the NBA in three-point field goal percentage.
Tim Legler
Three-pointers made: 260 Three-pointers attempted: 603 Three-point percentage: 44.7% 1995-1996 was Tim Legler’s season, in which he ranked first in the league in both 3-point field goal percentage and true shooting percentage. The impressive player won the 1996 Three-Point Shootout during All-Star Weekend. He also holds the record for a 3-round aggregate of (23, 22, and 20 out of 30 each) 65 points (out of 90).
Legler played professional basketball for ten years and was ranked 8th ever in three-point percentage, however, a knee injury eventually ended his career.
Seth Curry
Three-pointers made: 437 Three-pointers attempted: 986 Three-point percentage: 44.3% In this case, talent does run in the family, Seth Curry, son of former NBA player Dell Curry and brother to our number one on this list, Stephen Curry, was signed by the Kings mainly for his ability to shoot from the outside, which was the team’s weakness.
Curry, who is considered to be a "shooting guard trapped in a point guard's body," recently scored a career-high 37 points and 8-9 from the three-point line against Miami Heat.
