JR Smith, who had a forgettable Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors in the 2018 NBA Finals, is widely known for his shooting abilities. JR Smith has played with three teams during his career and has always been a great shooter for all of them.

One of his greatest performances came in the finals of game 5 in 2017 when Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 129-120 for their second title in three years. JR went for a monster performance and shot 7 3-pointers in just 8-attempts with a 3-point field goal percentage of 87.5. Though Cavaliers lost the game, a lot of people have praised JR for playing his heart out till the last second of the game.

JR Smith has made 282 3-pointers after attempting 764 with a 3-point field goal percentage of 36.9 in the post-season. JR Smith who now plays for Cavaliers is their go-to guy to shoot 3s along with Kyle Korver, who is another great 3-point shooter.

JR won a championship ring with the Cavs in 2016.
