Next season, there’s a possibility that Klay Thompson of the Warriors could surpass Reggie Miller on the all-time list for three-pointers made

Klay Thompson, a key member of the Golden State Warriors’ big three, is widely regarded as one of the greatest shooters in basketball history. He has the potential to break into the top five for most three-pointers made next season.

The Golden State Warriors boast not only Stephen Curry as a great shooter but also Klay Thompson, who is considered one of the greatest shooters in basketball history.

Despite experiencing a somewhat subdued season by his standards, Klay still managed to make 268 three-pointers, which ties for the second-highest total in a single season in his career. This accomplishment enabled him to surpass Kyle Korver and advance to sixth place on the all-time list, bringing him within reach of the top five.

Reggie Miller, the legendary player for the Indiana Pacers, currently occupies the fifth spot on the all-time list with 2,560 career three-pointers made, just one position above Thompson. This places Klay a mere 79 shots from beyond the arc behind the former top record holder.

Considering Klay Thompson’s consistent performance, having never made fewer than 100 threes in a season when active, it’s highly probable that he will conclude the upcoming season ranked in the top five all-time for three-pointers made.

The ironic aspect is that there’s a possibility he may achieve this milestone while not playing for the Warriors. Speculation has been rife about Thompson potentially departing in free agency this offseason to join a team in need of his shooting prowess.

However, regardless of which team he surpasses Miller with, there’s no denying Klay Thompson’s greatness over the past decade.
