Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report published a list of the greatest shooting big men in NBA history, and former San Antonio fan-favorite Matt Bonner took home second place honors right behind Dirk Nowitzki. Though the ten-year Spur lacked the prolific volume of some of today’s oversized snipers, his unorthodox playstyle helped usher in an era of pace-and-space basketball.
Much like Steve Novak, Matt Bonner’s game was largely predicated on the ability to shoot. He may not have been quite as efficient as Novak, but he was still scoring significantly more points on his attempts than the average shooter.
