Michael Jordan’s three-point shooting percentage in the 1996–97 season was 37.4%.
Playing for the Chicago Bulls, Jordan made 111 three-pointers on 297 attempts during the regular season. That produces a rounded percentage of .374, or 37.4%. The figure refers specifically to three-point field goals, not to his overall field-goal percentage, which was 48.6% that season.
The number is notable because Jordan was not primarily known as a high-volume perimeter shooter. He scored mostly through mid-range jumpers, drives, post-ups, and transition plays, while teammates such as Scottie Pippen and Steve Kerr carried more of the Bulls’ outside-shooting load. Jordan nevertheless became a credible threat from beyond the arc during Chicago’s second three-peat.
Another possible source of confusion is the playoffs: regular-season and postseason shooting percentages are recorded separately. This question’s 37.4% figure is Jordan’s 1996–97 regular-season mark.
