Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant have long been regarded as two of the greatest shooters of their generation, and in NBA 2K26, that legacy has been cemented yet again. They are the only two players in the entire game with a three-point rating above 90, a testament to their unmatched accuracy, consistency, and ability to change games from deep.
1. Stephen Curry - 99 (311 3PM, 39.7% 3PT FG)
2. Kevin Durant - 91 (160 3PM, 43.0% 3PT FG)
3. Klay Thompson - 89 (216 3PM, 39.1% 3PT FG)
4. Desmond Bane - 88 (164 3PM, 39.2% 3PT FG)
5. Isaiah Joe - 88 (192 3PM, 41.2% 3PT FG)
6. Zach LaVine - 87 (239 3PM, 44.6% 3PT FG)
7. Grayson Allen - 87 (149 3PM, 42.6% 3PT FG)
8. Luke Kennard - 87 (113 3PM, 43.3% 3PT FG)
9. Sam Hauser - 87 (166 3PM, 41.6% 3PT FG)
10. Anthony Edwards - 87 (320 3PM, 39.5% 3PT FG)
Curry tops the list with a near-mythical 99 three-point rating, and rightfully so. At 37 years old, the Golden State Warriors icon remains the gold standard for long-range shooting, knocking down 311 triples last season at a 39.7% clip. What’s remarkable is not just the volume but the degree of difficulty in his shots.
Whether it’s pulling up from 30 feet, hitting contested daggers off the dribble, or coming off screens at full speed, Curry continues to bend defenses in ways no one else can. His shooting gravity opens up the floor for the Warriors’ offense, making him the most feared shooter the sport has ever seen and NBA 2K26 gives him the perfect rating to match that status.
Kevin Durant, now with the Houston Rockets, comes in second with a 91 rating. While he is more known for his all-around scoring than just his three-point shot, last season was a reminder of just how deadly he can be from beyond the arc. Durant drilled 160 threes at a 43.0% clip, one of the most efficient seasons of his career from deep.
Even though his time with the Phoenix Suns ended in disappointment with a missed playoff berth, his perimeter accuracy was never in question. In Houston, KD will be expected to pair his outside shooting with his elite mid-range game to help the Rockets take a leap forward in the Western Conference.
Klay Thompson rounds out the top three with an 89 rating, proving he still has elite shooting chops in his first season with the Dallas Mavericks. Thompson connected on 216 triples at 39.1%, and his quick release remains as dangerous as ever.
Dallas will be hoping he stays healthy, as his combination of three-point shooting and playoff experience could be the key to a deep postseason run.
Desmond Bane, rated 88, has quietly become one of the league’s most dependable shooters. After a solid year with the Memphis Grizzlies, in which he hit 164 threes at 39.2%, he was traded to the Orlando Magic this offseason.
Orlando struggled with perimeter shooting last year, and Bane’s arrival should provide a massive boost in spacing.
Isaiah Joe, another 88-rated sharpshooter, played a crucial role in the Oklahoma City Thunder’s championship run, hitting 192 threes at an impressive 41.2%. He will be a key piece again as OKC looks to defend its title.
Zach LaVine and Grayson Allen both earned an 87 rating, but in different ways. LaVine, splitting last season between the Chicago Bulls and the Sacramento Kings, was lethal from deep with 239 makes at 44.6%, while Allen thrived in his role, hitting 149 threes at 42.6%.
Luke Kennard, also at 87, had a strong season for the Grizzlies before moving to the Atlanta Hawks, where his shooting will be vital for a team looking to retool around Trae Young.
Sam Hauser, Boston’s three-point specialist, earned his 87 rating by sinking 166 triples at 41.6%, even though the Celtics fell short of defending their title.
Finally, Anthony Edwards, also rated 87, led the entire league in three-point makes with 320, hitting them at 39.5%. His volume shooting was at an all-time high, and he’ll be looking to further refine his accuracy to match his growing offensive arsenal.
Still, NBA 2K26 makes one thing clear: no matter how deep the league is with shooters, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant remain on their own tier.
