My top 5 in no specific order
Durant*probably the best pure shooter on this list , his range starts as soon as he steps on the court
T-Mac*in his Orlando days he could score from anywhere on the court and shoot 30 footers off the dribble over double teams, totally unstoppable especially when he was on fire
Agent-0*he has hit 35 foot game winners
LeBron James*can score from anywhere beyond the 3 pt line mostly when he is on fire, he is not the most on target as some of these other guys but he can pretty much score from anywhere
Kobe Bryant*unstoppable to guard, you have to be aware of him at all times no matter where he is as soon as he steps on the court
OTHERS I MISSED OR FORGOT, OR YOU THINK SHOULD BE IN A TOP 5?

Eric Gordon? In practice he makes over half of his half court shots, I think he usually goes like 6 for 10 or something.

Eric Gordon has a ton of range and a great jumper . i believe you about the halfcourts but its in pracitce , have you went on u-tube and saw the crazy shots lebron has made ? and also Dwight Howard makes underhanded 1 handed halfcourts regularly in pre-game shootarounds, and i havent seen EG hit 3 plus foot shots in the NBA

Gil Zero. Have you seen the kinds of shots he takes and makes during games? He’ll literally pull up from five feet beyond the arc and drain it.

Kevin Martin id say. Im a little bit biased. Ill prolly get docked for this. But i think he can hit fom ANYWHERE floor and is extremely clutch, didnt have the best FG% last year, but is still a legit scorer and one of the best scorers in the NBA.

Because of their height, length, and strength they have unlimited range. If Lebron ever got consistant enough, he could knock down 30 footers. Vince Carter, Michael Redd, Dirk, Baron Davis, and Kobe all get love as well, among others.
Almost forgot my man JR Smith and Jamal Crawford. Video game type three pointers.

No doubt he is on the list. I will never forget watching him nail a 30 foot buzzer beater in 1993 aginst my Lakers to win the game. That dude shoots half court shots like most people shoot free throws.

But Casey Jacobsen used to pull up from 30 feet on the regular. I watched a couple of his games live, and that dude was unconscious.He did’nt have great break you down skills, so when he got a look, he let it fly.
