#6 Buddy Hield
Several trade rumors have linked Buddy Hield to a move away from Sacramento due to his eagerness to feature in the NBA playoffs. For the time being, he is staying put as no favorable trade deal has been reached.
It is unclear how Hield's 2021-22 NBA campaign will turn out. However, seeing that the Sacramento Kings are looking to build around the backcourt duo of De'Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton, he remains an elite perimeter threat.
Hield has continually operated at an efficient rate and has been the primary scorer for the Kings. Although his percentages have dropped in recent seasons, he is still a better shot than many traditional shooting guards in the NBA. His 2018-19 season has been his most impressive from deep as he shot 42.7% while playing all 82 games in the season.
Hield ended the 2020-21 season with 39.1% shooting from three-point range, a significant drop despite making more attempts. Regardless, he knows how to shoot the ball and will be an incredible addition to any team in the 2021-22 NBA season.
#5 Duncan Robinson
In only three seasons in the NBA, Duncan Robinson has moved up the ranks to establish himself as one of the best three-point shooters in the league. Considering the current Miami Heat roster, the 27-year-old is the best perimeter threat.
Robinson shot 40.8% from beyond the arc during the 2020-21 NBA season and can do better. To improve efficiency, he will need to work more on creating his shots.
Currently, the 27-year-old relies heavily on the catch-and-shoot as 97.2% of his three-pointers last season were assisted.
#4 Damian Lillard
Although percentages tell a lot about a player's performance, they do not tell the full story. Damian Lillard's three-point shooting percentage might be low due to the ridiculous nature of the shots he attempts. While many shooters hug the NBA's 24-foot perimeter line, Lillard rises from just about anywhere on the half-court.
The 30-year-old ended the 2020-21 NBA season shooting 39.1% from three-point range while attempting 10.5 shots per game. In the playoffs, he shot an effective 44.9% with 13 attempts per game.
Lillard currently holds the record for the most three-pointers in the NBA playoffs after he drained 12 three-pointers against the Denver Nuggets in Game 5 last season. His two clutch game-tying 3s sent the game into double overtime, but the Portland Trail Blazers eventually lost the game.
Guess the Lakers players!
