The Philadelphia 76ers have laid claim to plenty of consistent outside shooters so Section 215 ranks the best 3-point shooters in franchise history.

The Philadelphia 76ers have seen many legends come and go through their organization. Dolph Schayes, Wilt Chamberlain, Julius Erving, Darryl Dawkins, Moses Malone, and Charles Barkley are just some prime examples of players have shaped the culture and history of this franchise. Unfortunately, these guys won’t make our list of the franchises’ 3-point shooters because, well, that just wasn’t their game.

The modern game has brought NBA fans more of an outside game, and with this list we see how more recent players have put more of an emphasis on hitting the 3-point shot. Analysis of players from the start of the 3-point era to present day players was looked at when compiling the list.

Shots made, attempts, and percentage stats for each player while they were playing for the Philadelphia 76ers were taken into account. We’ll take a look at the five best outside shooters in Philadelphia 76ers history, but first here are some honorable mentions.
