Congratulations to 14-year NBA veteran Amar’e Stoudemire on his induction to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in his second year of eligibility!
Stoudemire was selected ninth-overall in the 2002 NBA Draft directly out of high school and immediately became one of the Phoenix Suns most important players. He played in all 82 games as a rookie, starting 71 of them and averaging 13.2 points and 8.8 rebounds-per-game en route to winning Rookie of the Year in 2002-03.
He spent the first eight years of his career in the desert, making five All-Star teams and three All-NBA teams with his lone First-Team All-NBA designation coming in 2006-07.
He was famously part of a massive New York Knicks swing for a title, signing with the New York shortly before they acquired Carmelo Anthony from Denver. Unfortunately for both Stoudemire and the Knicks, he’d never play more than 65 games in a season in the Big Apple, and they never got past the Eastern Conference semis in his time there. He finished out his career with short stints in Miami and Dallas before playing multiple years in Israel and then joining the coaching ranks.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. Stoudemire led the NBA in two-point field goals made in three different seasons. With that being said, can you name the players to lead the league in made two-pointers for each season since in the three-point era?
Good luck!
