Three-point percentage measures successful shots from beyond the NBA’s three-point arc divided by attempts from the same distance. The calculation is straightforward, but a leaderboard needs a minimum number of made shots to prevent a player who goes one-for-one from being treated as the most accurate shooter in the league.
Through completed games on November 7, 2026, the NBA’s 2026–27 season-leaders page ranked Los Angeles Lakers forward Jake LaRavia first at 60.0% (12-for-20), Brooklyn Nets center Moritz Wagner second at 55.6% (10-for-18) and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Tyrese Proctor third at 55.0% (11-for-20). The individual make-attempt counts are corroborated by the dated statistics snapshot.
Jake LaRavia leads at 60.0%
LaRavia has converted 12 of 20 three-point attempts in nine games, a very efficient opening stretch. Yet the sample represents only 2.2 attempts per appearance. His 2025–26 season rate was 32.1% on 78 makes in 243 attempts, illustrating why a hot first few weeks should not be projected automatically across 82 games.

Moritz Wagner follows at 55.6%
Wagner, now with Brooklyn, has made 10 of 18 shots from deep. His 55.6% trails LaRavia by roughly 4.4 percentage points, although the difference is just two made shots between their small early-season totals. The German forward-center supplies perimeter spacing from a role that also involves screening and finishing around the basket.

Tyrese Proctor ranks third at 55.0%
Cleveland’s Proctor has made 11 of 20 three-point tries in nine games. The Australian guard is only 0.6 percentage points behind Wagner, despite having one more make on two additional attempts. Such narrow margins make the order particularly susceptible to one shooting night.

The math shows why the ranking can change
A single hypothetical missed three would reduce LaRavia’s percentage from 60.0% to 12-for-21, or 57.1%. Wagner would move to 10-for-19, or 52.6%, and Proctor to 11-for-21, or 52.4%. Those scenarios change the denominator, not the players’ recorded totals. Percentage-point differences should not be described as percentage changes in shot volume.

NBA eligibility uses made shots, not an arbitrary attempt floor
The NBA’s statistical-minimum rules require 82 made three-pointers across a full 82-game season, with a prorated minimum during the schedule. The displayed leaders satisfy the league’s current qualification rule; the rankings are a dated snapshot, not the final 2026–27 shooting title.
Volume and efficiency answer different questions. A player can lead in three-pointers made without leading in percentage. Earlier BitcoinVersus.Tech comparisons of Tyrese Maxey and Stephen Curry and Harden and Dončić scoring peaks measured scoring production instead of the proportion of long-range attempts converted.
Likewise, the site’s Wembanyama–Dončić statistical assessment and quintuple-double scouting analysis illustrate how categories must be interpreted according to their own definitions. For three-point accuracy, the clearest ongoing evidence will be season makes, attempts, eligible status and how the percentage holds as the sample grows.

Percentages calculated as 100 × made threes ÷ attempted threes; values rounded to one decimal place.
Editor’s Note: All three shooting percentages are early regular-season figures through November 7, 2026, not final-season performance or shooting forecasts. NBA qualification thresholds are prorated during the season. All three YouTube videos are verified archival player-related NBA or team footage, and none is represented as documentation of November 2026 totals.
