Current Worst Three-Point Shooter In NBA Identified
Kyle Kuzma currently holds the unwanted distinction of being the NBA’s worst three-point shooter, converting only 28.6% of his attempts while averaging 4.8 shots from beyond the arc per game. This marks a significant regression from his rookie season with the Lakers, where he showed more promise as a scorer. Despite his struggles from distance, Kuzma remains a solid bucket-getter in other aspects of the game.
For context, Russell Westbrook has the lowest career three-point percentage (30.6%) among players who have attempted at least 3,000 three-pointers. This statistic highlights how shooting efficiency impacts player evaluation across the league.
The shooting woes are particularly notable as they affect team performance. When opponents force the ball away from primary options, as seen in Milwaukee’s recent offensive issues against Atlanta, shooting limitations become more pronounced.
