In basketball, a three-point field goal (also known as a "three-pointer" or "3-pointer") is a field goal made from beyond the three-point line, a designated arc radiating from the basket. A successful attempt is worth three points, in contrast to the two points awarded for shots made inside the three-point line. The National Basketball Association's (NBA) three-point shooting leader is the player with the highest three-point field goal percentage in a given season. The statistic was first recognized in the 1979–80 season when the three-point line was first implemented that season. To qualify as a three-point shooting leader, the player must have at least 82 three-point field goals made. This has been the entry criteria since the 2013–14 season.
Craig Hodges, Steve Kerr, and Jason Kapono have led the league in three-point shooting for two seasons, while Kyle Korver has led the league in three-point shooting for four seasons. Kapono and Korver are the only players to do so in consecutive seasons. Korver, who shot 53.64% from beyond the arc in the 2009–10 season, holds the all-time record for three-point field goal percentage in a season.
None of the leaders in this statistic have been inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
