Sixers Season Preview: Hollis Thompson is The Process

Hollis Thompson: the player that leaves you wondering what he’s doing or what his place is here, but somehow shoots at least 38 percent from three every season as a 76er.

Using Basketball-Reference's database, Thompson is one of nine players who has attempted at least 846 three-pointers (his total) through his first three NBA seasons while shooting at least 39 percent from deep (Thompson currently sits at 39.1 percent).

Thompson obviously won’t ever be a star like Klay Thompson is, or even a go-to sharpshooter like Kyle Korver, Wesley Matthews, or Allan Houston from this list, but the common thread between all other players in this query is that they’re legitimate NBA players whose ability to stretch the floor kept them in the league.
