Honorable Mention: Pablo Prigioni, New York Knicks

3PT FGM: 1.0

3PT FG%: .464

FT%: .917

Mid-Range FG%: .429

True Shooting %: .642

Pablo Prigioni is one of the most efficient shooters in the world. The New York Knicks point guard converted his 3-point field goals at a clip of 46.4 percent and his free throws at 91.7.

So what keeps Prigioni off of this list? He only attempted 2.1 3-pointers per game and 0.2 free throws. Sample size matters.

Honorable Mention: Ray Allen, Free Agent

3PT FGM: 1.6

3PT FG%: .375

FT%: .905

Mid-Range FG%: .444

True Shooting %: .590

With uncertainty surrounding his future, Ray Allen’s free agency tag hurts his ranking. He remains the greatest shooter in NBA history and his recent clutch performances in the postseason solidify his status as such.

Allen’s above-the-break numbers are concerning, but history says he’ll correct those with ease—if he returns.

Until he signs with a team and declares that he isn’t retiring, The King is an honorable mention.
