4. Three-Point Contest — Craig Hodges (1990-1992)

Most Bulls fans may remember John Paxson and B.J. Armstrong as Chicago’s primary long-distance shooters.

Being that Paxson hit the game-winning jumper from deep in Game 6 of the 1993 NBA Finals, he will be forever remembered as one of the players who helped the Bulls become the first team to win three consecutive titles in 27 years.

However, one name that has flown under the radar during the Bulls’ first two championship runs was Craig Hodges.

Although Hodges’ contributions were not fully appreciated during his four seasons in the Windy City, he was certainly capable of knocking it down from distance, as illustrated in the video clip below from 1991.

Hodges went on to win the three-point shootout three consecutive times, and while his playing time diminished each year he was a member of the Bulls, Hodges never converted less than 37 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc.

That stat, along with this fantastic shooting display, is why he was included on this list.
