I was living in Chicagoland when the Bulls were wining championship year after year. I do not recall even MJ scoring that many deadly 3-pointers.

If you followed the Bulls, you should know, Michael Jordan was never known for shooting threes.

On the Bulls, Steve Kerr was the three point shooter. (I don't know if he still holds it, but he did hold the all time three percentage for college ball.)

Jordan was a career 32.7% three point shooter, while Kerr 45.4% three pint shooter.

The pros didn't really practice shooting threes back then. Now anyone can do it if you practice it enough. Nikola Jokić can shoot threes. He wouldn't be able to do that 20 years ago.

Jordan’s best skill was 15 foot jumper shot. He would jump high and shoot at the apogee of his jump. So he was like 8 foot tall player at the instant, was very difficult to defend. yes, I remember Kerr as well, but don’t recall him shooting more than half a dozen 3-pointers during any game.

Iowa player Caitlin Clark took a dozen 3-point shots today and made most of them.

I am guessing Caitlin Clark shot 75-80% during dozen attempts. It was amazing to watch.
