He is the fastest in franchise history to hit the pentacentennial mark

On Wednesday in Milwaukee, Spurs guard Devin Vassell hit his 500th career three-pointer, making him the fastest Spur in franchise history to his the mark.

He already has more three-pointers in his stat sheet than former sharp-shooters Bryn Forbes, Marco Bellineli, David Bertans, and Doug McDermott.

He's currently 10th all time on the Spurs franchise records, just four behind Tony Parker. At this pace, he'll also pass Kawhi Leonard and Sean Elliott before the season's end.

While he is a ways away from Manu Ginobili, the all-time Spurs three-point shooter at 1,495, he could have the longevity to give El Contusione a run for his money.

An essential member of the Spurs rebuild, the former Florida State Seminole missed the beginning of this season due to foot surgery. He's shown remarkable skill and growth in each season, making him of the least tradable players on the current squad.
