.....um.... damn, no one recent is really coming to mind. Has it really been that long since we had a true 3 point master?

I guess Edwards, Charvez Davis, and Mykal Riley were all considered specialist but hopefully Petty will be much more.

The last true 3 point terror we had was Mykal Riley in 2009 (43%).

Emmett Thomas was 44% in 2004. In 2005 Felix was 45%, Winston 43% and Steele 43%.

I was kind of shocked to see he never broke 40%.

It felt like he was better than that for sure. That extended forearm push off was a thing of beauty back in the day

Throwback- Eric Washington

Pettway didn't shoot a lot of him, but he could drain later in his career

He was hot. He isn't a just spot up shooter. He isn't JJ redick when he was at duke.

Not trying to sound like a pessimist, but hopefully he doesn't just shoot them whenever he feels like it. I doubt he will, but freshman tend to get a big head and start throwing shite up. Hopefully he takes high percentage shots and has plenty of opportunities for open shots.

Don't worry, I agree, that's always going to be a poor idea...... but if he keeps hitting them.... then damn.
