Only the famous “sniper” is faster than the newcomer Dallas.
In the NBA regular season match, Dallas lost to Houston at home with a score of 102:108.
Mavericks rookie Klay Thompson didn’t have his best game, scoring 12 points on 5 of 13 field goals and making 2 of 9 three-pointers.
According to ClutchPoints, that didn’t stop the 34-year-old shooter from breaking the mark of 2,500 completed long-range shots.
To do this, he needed 798 games, which is the second fastest in NBA history.
Only his long-time Golden State teammate Steph Curry, who has made 2,500 three-pointers in 702 games, is faster than Thompson.
Klay Thompson became the 2nd fastest player in NBA history to reach 2,500 3PT FGM.
