Golden State's Hield climbs to 17th in NBA history for three-pointers made

On the night of Thursday, December 12, Golden State faced Houston in the NBA Cup 2024 quarterfinals. The Warriors lost, but their guard Buddy Hield made history.

Details: Hield played 35 minutes, scoring 15 points on 6/12 shooting, including 3/9 from beyond the arc, along with 4 rebounds. This performance brought his career total to 2,002 three-pointers, moving him to 17th place on the NBA's all-time list for three-pointers made.

Notably, the leader in this category is his teammate, Stephen Curry, with 3,825 three-pointers.

For context, this marks the second consecutive season that the NBA is holding the in-season NBA Cup tournament. Over the past two days, all quarterfinal games have been completed, and the semifinalists are now confirmed.

Reminder: Nikola Jokić recently set a personal scoring record in the NBA, although his team suffered a loss.
