5.) Mr. 1000

To reiterate: only 31 active players have 1,000 three-pointers. This list includes decade-plus stints in the league from Jason Terry, Paul Pierce and Dirk Nowitzki.

In fact, Lillard is the youngest player on the active list. He is in younger than Space and Pace Era products like Klay Thompson, James Harden and Steph Curry.

(At the 2:58 mark is where Lillard officially passes the 1,000 mark.)

If he can have the durability like some of the elder members in the 1,000 Three Club, the guard can certainly finish with his name among the top ever in made three-pointers.
