Desmond Bane is one of the best three-point shooter in the NBA. The 23-year-old sophomore shooting guard averaged 3.6 three-pointers per game on a 43.6% shooting.
The Grizzlies shooting guard is aware of his shooting ability and is confident with it. Bane puts himself just below Steph Curry when it comes to best shooters.
