Top five three-point shooters in ACC entering 2024-25 season

#5 RJ Davis - North Carolina Tar Heels

Davis best comes when he is posed against a defense with the ball in his hand. He can disrupt the paint with his quickness and tight handles.

The speedy guard shot 42.8% from the field last season while handling much of Tar Heels' production by averaging 21.2 points. Moreover, he has improved to be a threatening 3-point shooter.

#4 Hunter Sallis - Wake Forest Demon Deacons

Sallis recorded 18.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 2.5 assists last season, shooting 48.7% from the field and over 40% from the arc. He can score off the dribble but excels in catch-and-shoot threes. Despite being a great rebounder and defensive player, his biggest asset is his consistency.

This season, his biggest challenge will be to maintain the same efficiency when shooting from handoffs and through screens.

#3 Chris Bell - Syracuse Orange

The 6-foot-7 wing sank 8 threes in a half during a win against NC State this February and has a knack for hitting long shots. His low release point allows him to keep his balance throughout his shot and make it over leaping defenders.

He can effectively use his 3-point shooting as bait to find open lanes or sink one from the midrange.

#2 Isaac McKneely - Virginia Cavaliers

McKneely is a 6-foot-4 guard who can play multiple positions. He already has great strength which allows him to get up high on his jump shots.

McKneely has a quick release and can operate as both a spot-up or an off-ball shooter. However, teams have started to notice that he prefers going left more.

#1 Cade Tyson - North Carolina Tar Heels

The combo wing is highly competitive and has great shooting fundamentals. He was one of the most underrated players in college basketball playing for Belmont Bruins last season and garnered massive attention with Tar Heels in the 2024-25 stretch.

He has a knack for finding quality looks even when attempting in high volumes beyond the arc. He can move without the ball and his 6-foot-7 frame makes it easy to shoot over defenders.
