Jason Alan Kapono (born February 4, 1981) is an American professional basketball player. He is the only player in NBA history to have led the league in three-point field goal percentage in two consecutive seasons, and he also won the Three-Point Shootout twice.

Kapono played college basketball at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). He was the first player in the school's history to earn First Team All-Pac-10 honors for four years and was also the first UCLA player to lead the team in scoring four straight years. Kapono began his NBA career with the Cleveland Cavaliers, who drafted him in the second round of the 2003 NBA Draft. He later played for the Charlotte Bobcats, Miami Heat, Toronto Raptors, Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA before joining Panathinaikos B.C. in Greece.
