This is not a joke. Tony Snell — the journeyman swingman who has played for four teams in his eight-year career — had quite a season for the Atlanta Hawks.
Yes, that Tony Snell. The one who has averaged 6.4 ppg in his career.
We’re out here celebrating Kyrie Irving joining the 50-40-90 club (going over those percentages in field goals, threes and free throws made) this season, which we should definitely do. But Snell is the NBA’s first 50-50-100 player with 51.5 percent from the field, 56.9 percent from beyond the arc and 100 percent from the charity stripe.
So what if he only attempted 0.2 free throws a game, or 3.6 shots per game? Seriously, he hit 1.3 of his 2.3 three-point attempts, that’s awesome.
This is NBA history here, folks:
Tony Snell is officially the first player in NBA history to have a 50/50/100 season (min 100 attempts).

Wild, but absolutely true:
Tony Snell last missed a foul shot on March 12, 2019. He’s 100% from the line over the last two seasons.
