The 3-point shot has turned into a vital weapon in basketball. With teams focusing more and more on centering their offense around long-range shooting, several players in recent years have piled up impressive numbers from beyond the arc.
On Oct. 29, 2018, Klay Thompson made an NBA single-game record 14 3-pointers in a 149-124 win over the Chicago Bulls. Thompson finished with 52 points on 18-of-29 shooting for the Golden State Warriors, including 14-of-24 from deep.
In November 2025, Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody made a career-high seven 3-pointers in the first quarter of a matchup versus the New Orleans Pelicans. With the performance, Moody tied Stephen Curry for the second-most 3-pointers in any Warriors quarter of play.
