Ryan Appleby was Washington’s elite long-range weapon
Appleby’s calling card at Washington was **high-volume, high-impact three-point shooting**: he finished with the Huskies’ career record for made threes (231) and was widely described as one of the Pac-10’s best shooters, with a school-record nine 3-pointers in a game and 84 in a season. He fit best as a movement shooter and floor-spacer who could change game plans from deep, though his value was almost entirely tied to perimeter scoring rather than all-around creation.
