A lot people thinks making 3 pt shots is easy in the NBA, but a lot of thise players can make 3 pt shots like this guy. The difference is defense in NBA is incredibly tough where a defensive player 5 feet away can make up ground and air to block a shot attempt.
You can tell it's him! No matter how much they try you can always see it in the eyes.
