The top 5 teams in 3 point percentage are the Clippers, Bucks, Nets, Jazz, and Nuggets.

The big difference with those teams though is that they all have 2-3 guys that can go get their own shot if needed and they don't have to be hitting 3's in order to win.
Leonard brings great balance to the Clippers offense deadly mid range
Utah might be the exception but Mitchell, Conley and Clarkson can also mix up their game by attacking the rim or scoring from mid range.
