mid-range shot

English to Spanish Art/Literary Sports / Fitness / Recreation Basketball
¡Hola!

Estoy traduciendo un cómic sobre baloncesto y me topé con este término. En la parte en la que aparece, alguien está describiendo a los jugadores del equipo contrario, y va así:

-Their captain XXXX is a center who is the main scoring threat for YYYY High School. He has an aggressive playstyle and can even shoot from midrange along with his low post ability. Vice captain ZZZZ is a point guard who also manages YYYY High School's overall strategy.

En contré la definición en inglés, pero no encuentro el equivalente es español.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Neil Ashby, Pablo Cruz

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

— El tiro de media distancia, gran olvidado en el baloncesto actual. Reflexionamos sobre la evidente tendencia a desdeñar el lanzamiento que que cimentó la leyenda de Michael Jordan, inapelable en estas lides. .

Michael Jordan Is The Best Mid-Range Shooter In NBA History
Of the 59 NBA players who attempted at least 300 midrange shots that season (1996-97), Jordan ranked third in overall efficiency, hitting 49.5% on over 1,100 tries. Only Chris Mullin and Vinny Del Negro were more accurate. Reggie Miller, commonly regarded as the finest shooter of that era, made 42.4% of his 484 midrange shots that season. Yep, Miller attempted 484 while Jordan made 547.
Jordan ranked first in midrange scoring and third in efficiency despite his midrange game requiring him to take numerous impossible shots against the league’s top defenders on a nightly basis.
