WNBA Leaders: Who has made the most 3-pointers in league history?

"From downtown" refers both to an origin in a busy metropolitan area and, in basketball, to attempting a field goal from behind the three-point line, which is 22 feet, 1.75 inches from the basket. This long-range shot has evolved from an afterthought to a primary scoring focus in modern basketball.

The WNBA has featured many exceptional long-distance shooters throughout its history. Diana Taurasi stands as the league's all-time leading three-point shooter. Over her 20-year career, she made 1,447 three-pointers, averaging 36% accuracy on 7 attempts per game. Taurasi and fellow UConn alumna Sue Bird (1,001 three-pointers) are the only two players in WNBA history to surpass 1,000 career three-pointers.

The league has seen numerous talented markswomen since its inception. The top three on the all-time three-pointers made (3PM) list are: Diana Taurasi (1,447), Sue Bird (1,001), and Katy Smith (906).
