It started ugly, but Kemba Walker was eventually able to will his second 3-pointer of the day through the net, breaking Dell Curry’s record of 929 3-pointers made for the Charlotte Hornets.
Overall it was a rough day for the captain, who connected on just six of his 19 shots for 18 points. In a surprising turn of events, the bench was able to pick up the slack. They combined for 45 points, including a career high 15 from Treveon Graham. Nicolas Batum also chipped in with his second straight 20-point performance while Dwight Howard added another double double to his tally with 18 points and 14 rebounds.
