BOSTON -- The Celtics broke the NBA record for 3-pointers in a season Friday night against the Phoenix Suns.
They set the mark, surpassing Golden State's total from two seasons ago, when Payton Pritchard hit a left-wing shot 3:40 into the second quarter for No. 1,364.
Kristaps Porzingis tied the mark when he up-faked a defender, dribbled to his left a few feet before hitting one from the top with 9:37 left in the second quarter.
The Warriors made 1,363 in 2022-23. Boston also is third in league history, connecting on 1,351 en route to the NBA title last season.
