When talking about three-point specialists, the former shooting guard Kyle Korver needs to be included in the conversation. From this season, however, Bogdan Bogdanovic will also mentioned when it matters for the Atlanta Hawks.
As officially announced by the NBA franchise, in fact, the former Partizan Belgrade and Fenerbahce player “has buried at least one three-pointer in 44 straight games, the third-longest such streak in franchise history”.
The only player capable of shooting at least one three-pointer in longer game streaks is none other than Kyle Korver, who currently had the second-longest streak with 51 straight games and the very first at 127 straight games.
Recording a career-high of 40 points with 10 three-pointers in the recent defeat against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, Bogdan Bogdanovic has had the best season of his career scoring-wise, averaging 17.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game.
After leaving the EuroLeague in 2017, he stayed with the Sacramento Kings until 2020, when he moved to the Atlanta Hawks. With the Serbian national team, he won silver medals at EuroBasket 2017, Olympic Games 2016, and World Cups in 2019 and 2023.
