NBA 2K23 honors its top scorers with impressive overall ratings, mirroring the NBA's shift toward high-scoring offenses and exciting shooters. Many of the highest-rated players in the competition achieve such a distinction due to their blatant effectiveness from beyond the arc. The next three players on the roster have the highest three-point ratings.
The best 3-point shooters in NBA 2K23
Stephen Curry — 99
It's hardly surprising that Steph Curry has the greatest three-point rating with a perfect 99 since he almost single-handedly changed how three-pointers are valued in the modern NBA. Curry still led the league in made three-pointers last season, despite his three-point accuracy somewhat declining to a respectable.390. He has done this in back-to-back seasons and seven other times throughout his career. If you're still not sure that his ability to score from outside the paint is perfect, think about how it helped him win his fourth championship in June.
Kevin Durant — 88
Durant has a rating of 96 overall, third among all players in NBA 2K23, and an 88 rating on three-pointers. It might be argued that his three-point shooting skills have been rated too low for how he performed in comparison to other 88-rated shooters in 2K23 after shooting a career-high. 450 from beyond the arc last season. Still, the 12-time All-Star won't be stopped from making a big difference, even if some stats are missing.
Klay Thompson — 88
Thompson is dependable and tested as a three-point shooter and all-around scorer at the highest level of play, as seen by his 83 overall rating, which is in part owing to his 88 three-point shot rating. The four-time champion and five-time All-Star has carved up quite a career for himself with the Golden State Warriors as a member of the "Splash Brothers" tandem, known for terrifying rival defensive strategies through the air. After shooting.385 beyond the paint last season, Thompson isn't even his own team's best three-point shooter, which is a measure of how effectively the Warriors score with Thompson in charge.
