English term or phrase: mid-range shot
¡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.

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.
