Best Shoot/Shoot Centered Playmaker Builds
As we mentioned above, point guards are called the heart of the team.
Shooting point guards are referred to as the “wings” of the team because of their ability to consistently make 3-point shots and because of their overall positioning.
A point guard who specializes in Shooting needs to be one of the most patient players as they sit behind the 3-point line – one of the busiest areas of the field – and therefore cannot make any moves that would harm the chances of his team to score a point.
