NBA 2018-19: 10 centres who are viable 3-point shooters

#6 Al Horford

Detroit Pistons v Boston Celtics

This may not be the best time to be singing virtues of the Dominican big man given his ice-cold shooting form to start the season off, but his resume commands enough faith in my homer eyes for me to expect him to shrug it off as the season wears on. Having shot a percentage good enough to crack the top-10 3-point % ranking in 2017-18, Horford is now making fewer shots on 1 more attempt per game on average.

And yet, his threat from downtown has to be guarded in a befitting manner, as the Thunder found to their cost when Horford knocked down 3 3-pointers in the space of a minute to turn the tide of the Celtics' game at the loudest arena in NBA basketball.

The entire Celtics roster is struggling for form and rhythm right now, but their talent is too good for them to continue to be this putrid on offence for too long. Having Brad Stevens, arguably the best coach in the league, at the helm, helps a lot.
