The NBA has been the pinnacle of professional basketball in the world for decades. It’s only fitting to see that the greatest talents in the history of the sport have made their mark here. On that note, here are some of the greatest shooters in the league’s history.

Larry Bird


Larry Bird, also known as Larry Legend is the king of NBA shooters. But contrary to popular belief, shooting wasn’t Bird’s forte. He was one of the great all-around players to ever lace up a pair of basketball shoes. It just so happened to be that he was a sniper as well.

Reggie Miller

One of the most dangerous players to every play on an NBA court, Reggie Miller could shoot the ball as well as anyone and he could fire off a shot incredibly quick. He was also an expert at moving without the ball to get free for a catch-and-shoot play.

Ray Allen

The fundamentals of Ray Allen’s shooting form are simply perfection. Nobody shoots as smooth as Ray, and has led the league in 3-pointers, until the next person on this list showed up…

Steph Curry

Often cited as the greatest NBA shooter of all-time, it’s easy to see why. No player before or since has had quite the shooting ability of Curry. Once he gets past half-court, he’s in range. And he has erased and broken records left and right in the past five seasons.
