Dennis Scott
Three-point sharpshooter before three-pointers were cool
Dennis Scott, a star college basketball player, played his first seven seasons with the Orlando Magic and is perhaps best known as being a deep threat during the Shaq-Penny era. During the 1995-96 season, Dennis Scott set the single-season NBA record for threes made with 267, a record that stood for a decade. Scott still holds the record for the Magic for most threes made in a single game, 11, which Scott delivered on April 18, 1996. This was also an NBA record until Kobe Bryant broke it in 2003.
