Based on what he actually did, he would have averaged 55 points a game.
But if the 3-point line existed when he played, he would have taken more shots from that range and most experts say Pete would have averaged 60-65 points per game during his collegiate career.

No chance. Pistol is the GOAT but he averaged 44 PPG without a 3 point line, for him to average 60-65 PPG would mean that like 90% of his shots were 3 pointers. I don’t buy the Dale one either.
I think if Pete had a 3 point line, with as deadly a shooter as he was, teams would’ve doubled him on the perimeter constantly. You can’t really predict what he could’ve done but it wouldn’t just be as simple as “oh that shot he took was actually a 3 today”… the defenses changed too.

..and this was with defenders picking him up at half court if not full court. He had to work for every shot and still rang up as many points as he did.
