corner three
Deep perimeter attempt
A corner three is a three-point shot in basketball taken from either corner of the court, where the three-point line is closest to the basket.
Because the distance is shorter than elsewhere along the arc, corner threes are considered higher-percentage shots: He's deadly from the corner three.
The shot has become central to modern basketball strategy.
