The undrafted sharpshooter is slowly becoming one of the best catch-and-shoot ballers in the league Last night, as the Spurs played against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Julian Champagnie pulled off a couple of noteworthy milestones.
The twenty-three-year-old Staten Island native hits his 200th three-pointer, making him the fifth undrafted Spurs player in history to cross that line.

Julian is the eighth undrafted player in Spurs history to hit the mark.
Last night’s loss against the Timberwolves was also Julian’s fifth game in a row to acquire double-digit scoring. Just over a week ago against Sacramento, Champagnie scored 30.
Recently, he told Spurs TV play-by-play announcer Jacob Tobey that his goal is to be the best catch-and-shoot three-point shooter in the league.
So far, he’s making positive steps in that direction.
