0 In a high-scoring clash on Sunday night in the Bay Area, the Dallas Mavericks outgunned the Golden State Warriors in a 143-133 shootout, setting an NBA single-game record for combined 3-pointers made. The two teams collectively drained 48 triples, breaking the previous record of 45.
The Mavericks shot an impressive 21-for-41 (51.2%) from beyond the arc, while the Warriors matched their volume with 27-for-54 (50.0%) shooting from deep. The game’s 3-point barrage was led by the return of Klay Thompson, who nailed seven 3-pointers, matching his Splash Brother Stephen Curry’s total. For Dallas, Luka Dončić hit six triples, with Draymond Green and Andrew Wiggins contributing five each for Golden State.
The first half alone saw another NBA record fall, as the teams combined for 30 made 3-pointers, with Golden State tying the league record for a half at 18, and Dallas adding 12 of their own.
A total of 13 players knocked down at least one 3-pointer, with 10 of them hitting multiple shots from long range. The offensive explosion marked another chapter in the Mavericks-Warriors rivalry and underscored the evolving, 3-point-heavy nature of modern NBA basketball.
