Doncic has always displayed a willingness to take 3-point shots. However, this season, he has significantly elevated his performance in this area, displaying marked improvement in both his accuracy and efficiency.

Each player has their distinct strengths when it comes to shooting from beyond the arc. Stephen Curry stands out as a hybrid guard with exceptional shooting abilities. Klay Thompson excels in creating separation from defenders through off-ball movement. Damian Lillard is renowned for his extraordinary shooting range.

For Doncic, the step-back jumper has emerged as his signature move, showcasing his versatility and skill set on the court.
