Misc Who will make the 1st 3 pointer of 2025-26?

[Fabbs]

With all the injuries, this year could be a surprise player if favorite Vic does not hit the 1st.
Write ins of course are allowed. The system appeared to max out at 10. I put the projected starters and bench before the injury bugs hit. So of course many of them will not even be in the game. I just took Sochan out and replaced with Write In. If Sochan surprises us, great.
Criteria.
Specify if you mean minutes and seconds INTO the quarter or minutes Remaining in the qtr. A quarter is 12 minutes long by way of reminder.
Final tiebreaker. Predict how many spins the ball will make before falling in the basket.

Prizes
1st place a $50 gift cert from Visa. It's everywhere you want to be. Allegedly.
2nd place. A breakfast at your favorite place in YourTown, USA.
3rd place. Open for suggestions.

If any want to add to the $50 feel free. I was figuring snail mail to prize winner(s) however i realize paper is used less and less.

Harrison Barnes, 2 minutes into the first quarter.

PS: How is Barnes NOT an option? He's probably starting AND the most effective 3 pt shooter.

 

[Dex]

Wemby
1:15 mins into first quarter
8 spins

I zoned. Went to a list of projected starters and bench. How was Barnes not on that list?

Ok Barnes is a Write In.

Wemby. 12 seconds into the game. 6 spins. Nothing by net.

 

[Lefty20]

Vassell 45 seconds into first quarter.

 

[Itzsoweezee]

I feel like I aced this last season. I’m going to go with Barnes, two minutes into the first quarter.

Victor Wembanyama hits a 32 foot 3 point jumper 10:38 1st Quarter

 

[Guru of Nothing]

Champ starts and drills a three within the first two-minutes of the opener, setting the tone for the season.

 

[brazil]

Keldone

3 sec into first quarter, 2 spins

 

[couchman]

Wemby at 10:05 in the first

 

[Fabbs]

Wemby at 10:05 in the first

10:05 into the 1st meaning 1:55 remaining?

 

[Itzsoweezee]

Great minds…

 

[MacNeacail]

Sochan... first possession... 7 seconds into the first quarter... no spin (knuckle-ball)... off the glass.

 

[KobesAchilles]

Sochan

Sochan

If it is announced he is in the SL, I'll change my answer to Sochan as well.

 

[TDomination]

This is for the first game of the regular season correct? Against the mavs?

Wemby
1st Quarter of 1st game
10minutes, 12seconds remaining in the quarter.
Nothing but net.

 

[spurraider21]

Wemby on the Spurs second possession of the game, with 11:20 to go in the first quarter, 7 rotations

 

[spurs10]

Wemby 45 seconds into the 1st quarter.

I posted my guess without reading yours, they are just 5 seconds apart. Hopefully one of us is right.

this is some Price is Right bullshit

 

[Neuromancer]

Vic will hit the first three right after tip off and then miss the next 8 in a row

 

[ambchang]

I voted for wemby, 2:17 in the game, 30 footer from the top right.

But in reality, it will be sochan, 5 seconds in the game, try to pass to a non existent spur due to his lack of court awareness, but instead hit Flagg at the back of the head, flew up at a 35 degree angle, hit the top of the backboard and drop in through the net.
