Celtics’ Payton Pritchard breaks NBA record for most 3-pointers off the bench

Payton Pritchard owns a piece of NBA history following the Celtics’ win over the Nets on Saturday night.

Pritchard broke the record for most 3-pointers off the bench in a single season in the fourth quarter Saturday. The Celtics guard is the longstanding favorite to win the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award, and can now add a historic achievement to his resume.

Watch Pritchard make history with his 219th three:

“It just means I did my job off the bench at a high level, and hopefully I can continue to do that,” Pritchard told reporters postgame.
