The 8 best three-point shooters in Washington Wizards history
By Cem Yolbulan
No. 5: Martell Webster
Despite being a very productive player for the Wizards for over 2 seasons, Martell Webster is mostly forgotten. A solid role player without many weaknesses in his game, Webster’s career was cut short by injuries, not playing in an NBA game after the age of 28. This, combined with the extremely high expectations that comes with being drafted 6th overall in the 2005 NBA Draft, Webster may have had an unremarkable NBA career.
However, what he did with a Wizards uniform was certainly not unremarkable, especially as a three-point shooter.
Webster came into his own with the Washington Wizards and had the best two seasons of his career, starting in 75 out of 186 games. In that span, he hit 39.7% of his threes on 4 attempts per game. He was especially lethal from the corners, acting as a floor-spacer in John Wall-Marcin Gortat pick & rolls, and a solid shooting threat next to the Wall & Beal backcourt.
Combined with his size, athleticism, and solid defense, Webster was a complete package and remains an underrated player in Wizards history.
