After watching hundreds of games live and on film, it's clear Colorado is loaded with sharpshooters. Let's meet some of the players whose elite deep shooting can break down any zone defense and ignite their teams.    Jones has long been Valor's go-to deep threat.

Draining an impressive 41.3% from deep, she ranks second statewide in threes made with 71. The right wing and corners are her sweet spots, making her Fort Collins' go-to sharpshooter.     Avdem is unstoppable from beyond the arc, especially when curling off screens. She has been scorching hot all season, sinking 45% of her threes. With a knack for finding the perfect moment to strike, Avdem's three-point shooting keeps Falcon's offense humming. Her outside shooting will be a game-changer in the playoffs.     Hall's poise and leadership are big reasons why East is a state title contender this season. She is a smart point guard with great ball-handling skills and orchestrates the offense well.

Hall has converted 58% of her three-point attempts and often delivers in crucial moments. Her efficiency from deep will be important in the playoffs.     Law has quietly emerged as Legend's most dependable three-point threat. She never forces shots, instead capitalizing on open looks. Her catch-and-shoot ability, particularly off curls and screens, has been outstanding. In the past month, Law has made 25 of 46 three-point attempts, shooting a scorching 54%. Her three-point shooting is a difference-maker in Legend's playoff push.     Madden is a sharpshooting guard with a silky release that makes every shot look effortless.
