2. Which Bull would win a team-wide 3-point contest?

Berry: Doug McDermott wins a team wide 3-point contest without breaking a sweat. He’s had his ups and downs this year, but at least he’s not shooting under 30 percent like Nikola Mirotic. Also Mirotic would need to pump fake before he took each shot in the contest, meaning he wouldn’t get to finish every rack. Honestly put Fred Hoiberg out there and things get way more interesting. He shot nearly 40 percent from behind the arc for his career and him and Doug could battle it out for the king of Ames, Iowa.

Kuffel: My money’s on the janitor that unlocked the arena that day. If there’s a bird that somehow got into the gym, I would also feel good about his or her chances.

Whitlow: In terms of an all-Bulls 3-Point Contest, you would think Doug McDermott would be the overwhelming favorite. He’s probably the best shooter on the roster (despite this year’s numbers not really showing that). Nikola Mirotic could get warm and get on a hot streak to make it fun. Denzel Valentine and Isaiah Canaan would probably put up a few decent scores, but it would probably be McDermott’s trophy to lose.

Coughlin: I can’t even begin to guess at who would win this one. I’m pretty sure that with about 25 percent of the season completed, Rajon Rondo was the player with the highest 3-point field goal percentage. He’s also really bad at it. However, the event does take place on national television and if there is one time that Rondo actually tries, it’s when he knows the world is watching.
