Detroit Pistons: Who is the Pistons’ best 3-point shooter?

More from the shooters

The Atlanta Hawks feature one of the better shooting backcourts in the NBA in Trae Young and Kevin Huerter.

Young has actually shot the ball terribly this season, though he is still averaging over 22 points a game and nearly nine assists.

Huerter has also shot below his average this season, so the Pistons’ guards need to keep them in check and force them into difficult looks.

The Pistons have a couple of young shooters of their own in Saddiq Bey and Svi Mykhailiuk, who have shown they can shoot the long-range shot at a high level but have had inconsistent playing time as of late.

The Pistons rank near the bottom of the NBA in 3-point percentage, so it would be nice to see their shooters have a big game.

That is only going to happen if they play, and who knows if they will, but the Pistons need more shooting from their second unit and these two can potentially provide it.

We’d love to see Bey and Mykhailiuk start to get into a rhythm, as their shooting off the bench can be a huge weapon for the Pistons.
