There is no argument that three-point shooting is the most important skill in modern basketball. So, let us check the current numbers from the 2021 Philippine Cup and the ongoing Governors' Cup and name the top 10 shooters.
#10 Troy Rike
Part of three-point shooting is its impact in opening up the floor for your teammates. And of course, centers that can hit threes can do this much easier. This is the reason why Troy is my #10 as he shot 55% from beyond the arc in the Philippine Cup.
#9 Arvin Tolentino
Arvin is shooting the hell out of the ball this Governors' Cup. He is averaging the most makes per game, with 40% efficiency.
#8 Stanley Pringle
Pull-up three-point shots are the hardest ones to hit. And Pringle is one of the best in doing that. His efficiencies this season are not that impressive but he still get that respect of a supernova shooter.
#7 Robert Bollick
Basically, the same reasoning as Pringle but the difference is, the range of Robert is actually much deeper.
#6 Juami Tiongson
On the other hand of the spectrum, Tiongson is your regular fundamental shooter who is averaging more than two three-pointers per game this 2021-2022 season and shooting with very good efficiency.
#5 Jason Perkins
Perkins is currently the best stretch power forward in the league. He 43% in the Philippine Cup and 47% in the ongoing Governors' Cup.
#4 Matthew Wright
Wright is taller than Robert and Stanley but he is as deadly as those two in terms of pull-up three-point shooting.
#3 Aldrech Ramos
There is no debate this year that Aldrech Ramos is the best stretch center in the league. He is shooting 39% this import-laden conference and 44% last Philippine Cup. And he averaged more than 1 made per game.
#2 Marcio Lassiter
Marcio has taken back one of the top seats in terms of three-point shooting. He may not be as fast and as dynamic as before but the efficiency and effectiveness is still very high.
#1 Mikey Williams
Efficiency-wise, there is an argument that we should question putting Mikey here. But you cannot argue that he is the most effective three-point shooter in the league, being at the #1 of three-pointers made per game on both tournaments this season.
