#6 Klay Thompson

2018 NBA Finals - Game Two
Klay shoots over George Hill of Cavs

Klay Thompson is arguably one of the best shooters in the NBA currently, even all-time for that matter. He is known to shoot the ball from way downtown even without taking a dribble. His ability to come-off screen and shoot the ball quickly has been one of the main reasons why the Warriors have enjoyed the success they have in recent past.

Klay is a shooting guard who plays a great defense. When he has an off-day with his shooting which happens very rarely, he contributes on the defensive end. He then gets the confidence and comes back to his usual shooting form. There is no doubt that the Warriors would not have had the same amount of success without Klay.

Klay once had a legendary performance when he scored 60 points in 3-quarters against the Indiana Pacers. He shot 8-14 from the downtown and only dribbled the ball 11 times all game. This shows how good he shoots the ball.

Thompson has made 300 threes in the post-season after attempting 733 with an efficient 3-point field goal percentage of 40.9.
