It looks like you are referencing and quoting an old source. Just last year, in over 50 attempts, CJ was 46.9%.Cooney is currently on track to shatter the Syracuse record for Season 3 pt. %. Matt Roe holds the record with a .474 , second is Greg Monroe with a .439% and third is Shump with .426% .
We have had only one player shoot over .400 since 2000 and that was Demetris Nichols with a .417 in 2006. Cooney is shooting his way into some rarified air if he keeps it up!

Your point remains true though. If Cooney can keep this pace he will be the tops in 3 pt % here for people with over 50 attempts! And as Bees points out, 50 attempts is not very many.Ah, yes! Right you are Sgt. Thank you and I stand corrected.
The scary thing is he is now doing using a dribble or two as well.
Im not sure why 50 3 pt shots doesnt seem like many to most of you? thats about 2 per game. how many should a player take in a game? first off most players dont avg 20 pts but lets say you do and get 3-4 Ft's a game. that means you have to score 16 more, unless all you do is shoot 3's you are going to get 4-5 other scores that only leaves you with 2-3 made 3's in a game. Look at the NCAA stats last year of the top 40 players half of them took less than 100 3's. The top in the country only took 93 and the 2nd guy took 65. half the top 10 took less than 100.
Cooney isnt even in the top 40 right now.
