New Bleacher Report assessment tabs Malcolm Brogdon as NBA’s fifth-best shooter

“Scorching-hot above-the-break marksmanship suggests that Malcolm Brogdon may continue climbing up this list,” writes B/R.

After years of dealing with playing NBA basketball without the requisite spacing needed in the modern NBA, the Boston Celtics have truly assembled a lethal offense comprised of players who can hit an open shot and then some at a level perhaps never before seen on their roster.

With players like Grant Williams, Sam Hauser, and Payton Pritchard bringing the fire off of the bench and the offensive system transforming players like Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Al Horford, and even Marcus Smart knocking down 3s at a high level, Boston has become the team to beat in 2022-23.

And in a recent look at the best shooters in the league this season, new addition Malcolm Brogdon has come in fifth overall per a new assessment by Bleacher Report’s Dan Favale.
