Golden State Warriors

2016 3-point Accuracy: 38.2 percent

Thompson 3-point Accuracy: 38.9 percent

The Golden State Warriors might not be the first team considered in the grand scheme of the NBA, but the team loves the three point shot.

Hollis Thompson does too.

The Warriors run the NBA’s most potent offense. However, it’s not going to last forever. Right now, Thompson would be about an average three-point shooter on that team. That gives him more than a handful of potential mentors to give him tips, pointers, and to study as he perfects his shot.

The team is handling the duties at small forward through Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala.  While both are playing well, Durant has nine full seasons in the rear view mirror. Iggy has twelve.  There is no player in the pipeline for this team right now.

Thompson may not be an All-Star, but on the Warriors, he needn’t be.
