3-Pointers
(Honorable Mentions: Mikal Bridges, Donte DiVincenzo, Grayson Allen)
Trae Young, Atlanta Hawks
In his first season as a Hawk, Trae Young should have the green light to fire away from deep. It’s common for rookies to experience some growing pains getting acclimated to the deeper NBA 3-point line. Young should have one of the easier transitions, after routinely firing from feet beyond the arc in college.
Sheer volume will help propel him to the top of this list. Other players primarily tasked with catch and shoot 3-pointers may hit a higher percentage than Young but his Curry-Esq ability to create space and fire off the dribble will get him more looks overall.
College sniper Mikal Bridges will get his fair share of attempts on a Suns team that desperately needs more shooting. He will mostly rely on his teammates to set up his shot though, probably limiting his volume. Trae will almost certainly attempt the most 3-pointers, he will likely hit the most too.
