CLEVELAND — The Warriors came out firing in Game 3 of the NBA Finals and added their names to the record books with their red-hot shooting.
Golden State was 9 of 14 from beyond the arc in the first quarter, with the nine made 3s setting an NBA Finals record for treys made in a quarter.
Klay Thompson, who broke out of a playoff-long shooting slump in Game 2 with 22 points, had 16 in the quarter and made four of his five 3-point attempts.
Kevin Durant made both of his attempts from long distance and Stephen Curry was 2 of 4, with his two in the final two minutes of the period giving them the record.
