With the 2018 NBA Draft quickly approaching, we explore 10 of the best 3-point shooting prospects

Shooting is becoming a necessity in today’s modern NBA game, and is no longer a luxury. For teams to be successful in the way the league is built now, you need to have consistent and capable shooters on the wings.

With that in mind, here are 10 of the best 3-point shooters in the 2018 NBA Draft.

Svi Mykhailiuk, SG/SF, Kansas

Mykhailiuk just had his best season at Kansas. He had career highs in points (14.6), rebounds (3.9), assists (2.7), and steals (1.2). Oh, and he shot a career-high 44.8 percent from 3-point range.

Although a senior, Mykhailiuk is only 20 years of age (will be 21 by draft night). He isn’t going to blow you away with athleticism, defense, or playmaking, but his size, sweet stroke, and improved efficiency from behind the arc should warrant a second-round selection.
