Mini Marksman Test Details
To test Mini Marksman, we took over 22,000 shots with a shooter (6'3 and under) who has a 92 3PT rating against a defender with Bronze Challenger (85 Per. Def.) closing out, which provided the shooter open or light contest. There was also a 4-inch or 7-inch height difference between the shooter and the defender.
Mini Marksman Test Results
Mini Marksman has a significant effect when shooting over taller players especially at the higher badge levels (Gold, HoF and Legend). The lower badge levels (Bronze and Silver) are not recommended because as a small guard (6'3 and under) you're likely to have higher shooting attributes. In terms of height difference, the taller the defender, the bigger the boost.
