Dallas Mavericks guard Ryan Broekhoff did not play a ton this season, but he proved to have tremendous 3-point shooting ability. See all of his makes here.

Dallas Mavericks wing Ryan Broekhoff is a well-traveled man. He was born in Australia and played there through his high school days. Broekhoff decided to play NCAA basketball for Valparaiso. After four years and failing to get drafted, he took his talents to Turkey for two years. Then, Broekhoff had a three-year stint in Russia before making it to the NBA.

The 28-year-old just completed his rookie season with the Dallas Mavericks. He only played 453 minutes.

Broekhoff came on a bit at the end of the season. Over the final ten games, he averaged 8.2 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.7 3-pointers made in 19.5 minutes per game. Broekhoff also shot 51.0 percent from the field and 47.2 percent on his threes.

3-point marksman

Ryan Broekhoff is an unbelievable 3-point shooter. He only took 93 attempts, but he made 38 of them. That is a 40.9 percent connect rate for fans keeping track at home. Broekhoff has a beautiful stroke that should allow him to continue nailing his threes at a ridiculous rate.
