3-point field goals (as a Hawk): 420

3-PT FG% (as a Hawk): 35.5%

Jeff Teague, who is now a member of his hometown Indiana Pacers, was drafted by the Hawks with the 19th pick of the now-fabled 2009 NBA Draft.

He played mostly reserve minutes in his first two seasons, but coach Larry Drew unleashed Teague in his third season, and the Wake Forest product produced. His scoring average jumped from 5.2 to 12.6 points per game, and he hit 51 three-pointers, which eclipsed his career number of 25. Teague started for the Hawks for the next four seasons, even being named an All-Star in 2014-15, along with three of his Hawk teammates (two of which made this list).

His best shooting season as a Hawk came in his last season in Atlanta, in which he shot a scorching 40 percent from three-point range and hitting a career-high 110 threes. Though Teague has moved on, he will surely be remembered by Hawks fans for his skill, especially as a shooter, for a long time.
