<p><strong>The shooting guard is perhaps the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a>‘s most flashy spot. </strong>We have seen some of the NBA’s most impressive scorers start at a double-guard stage and <strong>Michael Jordan </strong>and <strong>Kobe Bryant</strong> are obviously leading the way.</p>
<p>Countless individual achievements and team rewards were won by the best shooting guards in NBA history. After all, MJand Kobehave certainly made the place incredibly popular for the two best perimeter scores of all times.</p>
<p>But also stars like <strong>Jerry West </strong>and <strong>Dwyane Wade</strong> won many awards and NBA titles, which brings fans all over the world a lot of excitement. The changing essence of the NBA will certainly make it even more difficult torankplayers in the future. For now, let’s take a look at the <strong>Top 13 Shooting Guards of All-Time.</strong></p>
<h2>13. Pete Maravich</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_pete_maravich_in_action.jpg_20222851_72aa5316.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Pete Maravich in action   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>One of the most skillful and efficient NBA types in history may have been the play style of Maravich. The unorthodox style of Maravich contributed to five full-star picks, four-team contributions, and a total of 31.1 points per game in 1976. Maravich never won the NBA, but after his outstanding career, he was named to the NBA Hall of Fame.</p>
<h2>12. Allen Iverson</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_allen_iverson_of_the_philadelphia_76ers_gestures_to_hear_cheers_from_the_against_the_washington_wizards__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_9eecf281.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Allen Iverson of the Philadelphia 76ers gestures to hear cheers from the against the Washington Wizards. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Allen Iverson is one of the most famous shooting guards of all time. While he didn’t win an NBA championship, he took a rather non-top team to the NBA Finals and triumphed in his first match with Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant in favor of the Los Angeles Lakers.</p>
<p>Iverson is one of the greatest scorers ever to play and perhaps the best man ever to play. Iverson’s one thing as a player was that he never had a fantastic team behind him to propel him into an NBA championship.</p>
<h2>11. Klay Thompson</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_klay_thompson_of_the_golden_state_warriors_reacts_against_the_phoenix_suns__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_976d2f9b.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Klay Thompson of the Golden State Warriors reacts against the Phoenix Suns. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Klay Thompson is one of the Splash Brothers and one of the finest shooters in the history of the NBA. Thompson has hit the leaderboard with three points in just eight seasons and is 18th in his career (1,798). In 2015 he earned 37 points in one quarter, as against the Sacramento Kings Thompson has also one of the most spectacular records for NBA.</p>
<p>Also one of the best winners in the league, the five-time All-Star made the all-defensive team for the 2018 season. Thompson transformed the atmosphere of the Warriors’ franchise along with Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, helping the team capture three championships over the last five years.</p>
<h2>10. Reggie Miller</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_reggie_miller_of_the_indiana_pacers_stands_on_the_court_during_the_game_against_the_toronto_raptors__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_f38e28c4.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Reggie Miller of the Indiana Pacers stands on the court during the game against the Toronto Raptors. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>The shooting skills were Reggie Miller’s tag line. Miller ended his career with the second most effective career, shot just under 40% of the three for his career (39.5 percent). He was an excellent free-throw shooter, in addition to his 3-point score ability (88.8 FT percentage of career), and was five times in free-throwing position.</p>
<p>He made five All-Star games and was a three-time selection on All-NBA teams. An 18.2-point average scoring career helped Miller end his career with the 21st largest in the history of the league.</p>
<h2>9. George Gervin</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_head_coach_george_gervin_of_the_ghost_ballers_watches_his_team_play_the_aliens__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_96c5d7e5.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Head coach George Gervin of the Ghost Ballers watches his team play the Aliens. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Gervin was one of the most popular scorers in the history of the league but he was one of the coolest players ever seen in the game. He was called “The Iceman” for that reason. His finger roll was his trademark shot and nobody did it better.</p>
<p>He easily could go past the defenders, and they somehow couldn’t deter him, even though they were conscious that the finger roll would happen. The Iceman scored 27.2, 29.6, 33.1, 27.1, 32.3, 26.2, and 25.9 points per game over 7 years. These are some of every player of the 72-year history of the league’s greatest marking seasons.</p>
<h2>8. Clyde Drexler</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_commissioner_clyde_drexler_looks_on_during_week_one_of_the_big3_three_on_three_basketball_league__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_b17509ea.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Commissioner Clyde Drexler looks on during week one of the BIG3 three on three basketball league. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Known as a Portland Trailblazer legend, Drexler was one of NBA’s most prolific scorers of all time. In 1983, he entered the NBA and scored more than 20 points in nine of his 16 seasons in the NBA.</p>
<p>Drexler took part in the 10 all-star game shows, in 5 teams chosen from the all-NBA, and won the Houston Rockets championship in 1994.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<h2>7. James Harden</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_james_harden_of_the_houston_rockets_reacts_to_a_three-point_shot_against_the_phoenix_suns__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_dc2ccb24.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    James Harden of the Houston Rockets reacts to a three-point shot against the Phoenix Suns. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Harden has been one of the league’s top scorers over the past five seasons. The two-time scoring champion had three straight seasons, averaging at least thirty points, all the more than the players on my list.</p>
<p>The 2011 Sixth Man of the Year made the transition from a rotation player to a powerhouse in less than a decade, and Harden’s supremacy was on full display during the 2017-18 season as he received the MVP trophy. In addition to his score, Harden is an outstanding player as he led the league in assists in 2016 and has six straight seasons with seven or more assists per game.</p>
<h2>6. Manu Ginobili</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_manu_ginobili_of_the_san_antonio_spurs_reacts_after_making_a_basket_against_the_miami_heat__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_6e062ad5.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Manu Ginobili of the San Antonio Spurs reacts after making a basket against the Miami Heat. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>The sharp left-handed Ginobili is one of the best foreign players in the history of the league and was a big part of the success of the San Antonio Spurs in the early 2000s and the late 2010s. Ginobili joined the NBA in 2002 and was a little raw until he was completely etched on Greg Popovich’s scheme.</p>
<p>Come the end of his career, Ginóbili was a two-time All-Star, a sixth Man of the Year, and a four-time NBA Winner. His effect on winning well surpassed his 13.3-point score average subpar, as he was the backbone of the Paddy franchise, which created regular winning seasons during his tenure with the team.</p>
<h2>5. Ray Allen</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_ray_allen_of_the_boston_celtics_reacts_in_the_fourth_quarter_against_the_miami_heat__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_110e5246.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Ray Allen of the Boston Celtics reacts in the fourth quarter against the Miami Heat. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Ray Allen, one of the best pure shooters in the league, is also the number one all-time three-pointer with 2,973 in his career. He had an all-around game that was all you could wish for from your shooting guard, and more.</p>
<p>He was an agile guard who could drive and dunk almost anybody. Since he was still lethal from the three-point line, the defenders did not know whether to take the three-point shot away or hold him away from the road.</p>
<h2>4. Jerry West</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_golden_state_warriors_executive_board_member_jerry_west_sits_on_the_bench_by_nba_logos__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_5137fa69.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Golden State Warriors executive board member Jerry West sits on the bench by NBA logos. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>West’s excellence speaks volumes, as it is the NBA emblem and one of the greatest scorers in NBA history. West’s 27-point season score average helped him finish his career with the 22nd-most points in the history of the league as well as a single-point championship. The 14-time All-Star was also a terrific defenseman, making five All-Defensive Team appearances and recording 2.6 steals per game.</p>
<p>Not just a prolific scorer, West was a fantastic competitor, illustrated by his 6.7-strong average and assist title in the 1971 season. The Hall of Famer has won an NBA championship with the Lakers in 1971 and is the only player in NBA history to win the MVP Finals on the losing team (1968).</p>
<h2>3. Dwayne Wade</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_dwyane_wade_of_the_miami_heat_runs_down_court_against_the_indiana_pacers__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_c990af81.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat runs down court against the Indiana Pacers. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Wade was a marvelous two-way guard, and one of the most entertaining players of his generation. The Miami Heat legend transformed the franchise culture and led them to three championships in his 17-year tenure.</p>
<p>Wade made thirteen All-Star appearances and also earned an ASG MVP award in 2009. The future Hall of Famer also comprised eight All-NBA players, three All-Defensive teams, and was the final MVP of the 2005 NBA season.</p>
<h2>2. Kobe Bryant</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_kobe_bryant_of_the_los_angeles_lakers_reacts_after_a_call_during_their_game_against_the_charlotte_bobcats__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_44ac49ed.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers reacts after a call during their game against the Charlotte Bobcats. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>We are never going to see anyone like Kobe Bryant again. He won five NBA championships with the Lakers, stayed his entire career, and regularly made his case a top-two shooting guard to have ever existed. What he did for the basketball game was special, as he brought the “Mamba Mentality” and the killer would walk on the court every time.</p>
<p>He spent his entire life dominating the basketball game, and we are all very thankful for that. 5 NBA awards, 2 MVP Finals, 2 Olympic Gold Medals, and 11-time All-NBA Team make him the second-best shooter ever, very very far away from all others.</p>
<h2>1. Michael Jordan</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201231_BUS_167247_michael_jordan_of_the_chicago_bulls_rests_on_the_court_during_a_game__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_fff9337f.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls rests on the court during a game. (Getty)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Unarguably the No.1 shooting guard to have ever walked the earth belongs to Michael Jordan. Jordan’s iconic accolades include five MVP awards, six title rings, and six MVP Finals. Jordan’s career scored an average of 30.1 points a game, and he was a ten-time scoring champion throughout his career.</p>
<p>Jordan received nearly every imaginable individual award since he also won ROY in 1984 and Defensive Player of the Year in the 1987 season. Michael Jordan is above any player on my list, and pretty much the rest of the NBA. There’s no other player who has so far matched his success.</p>

NBA: Top 13 Shooting Guards of All-Time - Bolavip US

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/golden-state-warriors-t101550" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Golden State Warriors</strong> </a>got a major blow when the news broke that <strong>Klay Thompson </strong>had suffered an Achilles injury, as he was just coming back from an ACL tear and will now have to miss another full <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> season.</strong></p>
<p>Thompson was working harder than ever and, according to coach<strong> Steve Kerr,</strong> he was having quite a tough time because he wasn’t able to play at all, which only made this news even more heartbreaking.</p>
<p>Needless to say, his friend and teammate <strong>Stephen Curry</strong> was there for him and showed his support both privately and on the record, but he recently admitted that it was also pretty tough for him.</p>

<h2>Stephen Curry Admits He Cried When He Heard About Klay Thompson’s Injury</h2>
<p><em>“You feel for a guy who has worked so hard to get back on the court two-three weeks out of (training camp) and something like that happens. You need to have a big-picture mentality when something like this happens. It’s easier said than done going through a lot of rehab, but there is a lot of time left in his career<strong>. We’re going to be there through it all</strong>,</em>” Curry said.</p>
<p><em>“He’s the best 2-guard in the league,” </em>he added.<em>“To get that call was a gut punch for sure. A lot of tears. You don’t really know what to say because a guy like that is having to go through two pretty serious rehabs now.

<p>Curry’s impact will be more important now than ever. The Warriors made a couple of interesting signings and the addition of <strong>Kelly Oubre Jr </strong>will help fill Thompson’s void. Then again, it just won’t be the same without <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/top-15-best-3-point-shooters-in-nba-history-20200812-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>one of the greatest shooters of all time</strong></a> on the court.</p>

<p><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/klay-thompson-t152112" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Klay Thompson</strong></a> has suffered a season-ending Achilles tear just one month away from the beginning of the <strong>2020/21 <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a></strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a>season. Klay missed the entire 2019/20 NBA season after tearing the ACL in his left knee during Game 6 of the 2019 <strong>NBA Finals</strong>.</p>
<p>Thompson didn’t play a single game, leaving the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/golden-state-warriors-t101550" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Golden StateWarriors</strong></a> hurt after being the rulers of the NBA for the past five seasons. He was ready to get a revenge season the next one and now his plans have been damaged.</p>
<p>He will miss the entire 2020/21 season, too, and the Warriors need to find a solution for this big, unfortunate situation. When he returns to the court, Klay will have two years without playing a game in the NBA. In the meantime, the Warriors need to find a replacement for the sharpshooter.</p>

<h2>3 best replacements for Klay Thompson in Golden State</h2>
<p>The Warriors are entering a season full of challenges and having the best players to reclaim their throne is a must for them. Now that they know that Klay won’t be participating this year, the Dubs need to find alternatives to the shooting guard. Here are the three best replacements for Klay Thompson on the Warriors.</p>
<p><strong>Joe Harris</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-9">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Joe Harris has been a very valuable piece for the Brooklyn Nets since 2017 and he hasn’t disappointed a bit. Harris was expected to hit free agency this offseason but recent reports suggest he will re-sign with the Nets.</p>
<p>The Warriors could get him via free agency or they could get the player and absorb it into their trade exception. Reports suggest Harris would be getting a salary between $16-$20 million if he re-signs with the Nets or any other team. Last season he recorded 14.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 69 games with Brooklyn.</p>
<p><strong>Wesley Matthews</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-53">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Wesley Matthews declined his player option with the Milwaukee Bucks and became an unrestricted free agent. Several teams around the league were looking to make a move for the swingman and now the Warriors could join his sweepstakes.</p>
<p>Matthews is a solid 3-and-D that could be valuable for the Warriors. Of course, not at the same level as Klay but he could still make good contributions to the team. He averaged 7.4 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game last season. Wesley rejected a $2.7 million salary this season and now he could earn more while playing for a contender.</p>
<p><strong>Avery Bradley</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-20">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Bradley, curiously, has been linked with the Warriors in prior days. Klay’s injury may accelerate things for both parties, as the Warriors are looking to add another guard to join forces with Steph Curry on the backcourt.</p>
<p>Bradley is not the deadliest scorer in NBA history, but he puts some decent numbers on the court. His value, however, has never been his offensive skills. Bradley has made several All-Defensive NBA teams during his career and that is the contribution he could bring to Golden State. Last season, he averaged 8.6 points on 44.4% shooting from the field with 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 24.4 minutes per game.</p>

<p>The basketball world is still without words after<strong> Shams Charania of The Athletic </strong>reported that <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/golden-state-warriors-t101550" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Golden State Warriors</strong></a> star <strong>Klay Thompson </strong>suffered a lower leg injury and had to undergo further testing.</p>
<p>Thompson was just coming off a career-threatening ACL injury he suffered during Game 6 of the <strong>2019 <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Finals vs. the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/toronto-raptors-t100208" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Toronto Raptors</a></strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/toronto-raptors-t100208" target="_blank" rel="noopener">,</a> and it seemed like his recovery was going according to plan.</p>
<p>Klay had to miss the entire 2019-20 season while rehabbing from that injury and, according to coach <strong>Steve Kerr, </strong>had a tough time being off the floor after barely missing a game throughout his career.</p>

<h2>Stephen Curry Reacts To Klay Thompson’s Injury, Worries Fans</h2>
<p>And, while most people wanted to stay positive about Thompson’s injury, the concerns about it being major rose to an all-time high when fellow <em>Splash Brother </em><strong>Stephen Curry </strong>posted a picture sending his prayers towards his friend.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="1063" data-size="w:1242,h:2202" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20201119_BUS_166141_enjr4mrucaehgms.jpg_661262251_35706d04.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>    Curry sent his best wishes. (via Stephen Curry)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Obviously, this is standard procedure. They’re friends and colleagues and he’s just wishing him the best. However, if the injury was minor, then there’s no need to go through all of this, and it only made it <strong>even more suspicious.</strong></p>
<p>There’s a growing concern around the league that Thompson <strong>may have injured his Achilles tendon. </strong>Needless to say, that would force him to miss yet another full season of NBA basketball and it’s unlikely that any player is able to come back from back-to-back injuries like that.</p>
<p><span></span> </p>

<div id="relatedNews-76">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Hopefully, this will all be a scare and Thompson will be back in the hardwood in no time. He’s one of the most humble, hard-working, and down-to-earth guys in the NBA and <strong>you never want to see this kind of thing happen.</strong></p>
