Question by robert f:
How many shots per player are granted in the NBA 3point shooting contest? What about the NBA record?
The NBA record is 19 consecutive 3pointers in a row in the NBA, 3point, shooting, contest. How many shots are players granted to take? Is 19 consecutive shots a perfect score? If not then will there ever be a perfect score?

Answer by Mahmoud the Palestinian Muslim
they can take 25 shots
the points are out of 30
because there are 5 racks
each have 5 balls
and 1 worth 2 points
because its a money ball

Each rack has five balls, four of which are worth one point (the standard orange balls) and the fifth one (a red, white, and blue ball; nicknamed the “money ball”) is worth two points. Thus a perfect score is 30 points.
Craig Hodges and Jason Kapono are tied for the scoring record with 25 points
In a 3-point shooting contest, you have 5 racks with 5 balls in it, placed on 5 different angles beyond the 3-point arc. That gives a player or participant 25 shots in one minute.
The record is 25 pts
they take 25 shots which is 4 orange balls on a rack which are worth one and 1 money ball on each rack that is worth two so all together a total of 30 pts. the record is 25 points which was tied last night.
