Korver is 53% from 3 point range, and 51% on 2's.

Has that happened before? Never knew of someone shooting higher % on 3's than 2's

edit: I should rephrase it. He has a higher 3p% than FG%, not necessarily 2P% (well he does have higher 3pt % than 2pt % but that's not what I meant to ask initially)

Bruce Bowen not only accomplished that feat, he also shot a higher 3pt% than FT%. He led the league one season in 3pt%, and shot something like .404 from the line.

You're right :applause: interesting. Although none of these guys had their FG% at 50% but Curry did it while putting up about 23 ppg :eek:

He averaged less than 1 per game iirc.

The quintessential 3 and D player. He couldn't do anything else. :lol

Still one of best and most beloved Spurs ever. :bowdown:

I'm too lazy to look it up but I think Craig Hodges did that one year.

Matthew Dellavedova is currently shooting 42% from 3PT, 22% from 2PT, with a FG% of 34%.

Makes sense though. He takes open 3's, hardly ever takes mid range shots, and kind of sucks at finishing.

Didn't Curry do it last season or the season before?

Randy Foye did it in 2012-2013 with the jazz he shot 41% from 3 point land(set the mark for most 3pters made by a jazz player in a season with 178) but he only made 37% from 2 pointers. He was than traded in the offseason lol.
