The 'NBA leaders in three-pointers since 1979-80' quiz

Happy 66th birthday to Boston Celtics icon and Utah Jazz executive Danny Ainge! Ainge won two NBA titles with the Celtics and led the entire league in made three-pointers in 1987-88. 

Which brings us to today's quiz. The NBA instituted the three-point line during the 1979-80 season. How many of the league leaders in three-pointers made for every season since then can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
