10. Dzanan Musa

2018-19 (NBA Catch-and-Shoot) – 1-7 (14.3%)

2018-19 (G League) – 82-231 (35.5%)

There’s an argument to be made that Musa deserves to be a few spots higher on this list given he made 35.5 percent of overall 3-point attempts in the G League last season. The only thing holding him back is that he hasn’t produced on the NBA level just yet. The length of the NBA 3-point line might be the same as the G League, but the transition isn’t always that easy.

11. Rodions Kurucs

Performance on catch-and-shoot 3-pointers:

2018-19 – 53-169 (31.4%)

Kurucs projects as a capable shooter down the road but was below average in his rookie season. He got some valuable experience last year, however, and was able to get his feet wet with 184 total 3-point attempts. He should be a bit improved from long range in 2019-20.

12. Theo Pinson

2018-19 (NBA Catch-and-shoot) – 8-28 (28.6%)

2018-19 (G League) – 106-275 (38.5%)

Pinson wasn’t regarded as a good shooter coming out of North Carolina (22.6 percent for his senior season), but he appears to be much improved based on his performance in the G League last season. Still, he didn’t shoot the ball well in his small sample size at the NBA level, and he needs to prove the 38.5 percent wasn’t a fluke.
