On Pro Basketball: Donyell Marshall’s 3s Are Not Long for the Record Book

There is no N.B.A. record that would seem to be more fragile than the one for most 3-point field goals made in a regular-season game. It has to fall, sooner rather than later, according to the less famous of the record’s co-holders.

“Right now, we know we’ve been fortunate to still have it and probably won’t much longer,” said Donyell Marshall, who shares the mark of 12 3-pointers made with Kobe Bryant, but with a notable distinction.

Though he was the fourth pick of the 1994 draft out of Connecticut by Minnesota, Marshall was not a star.
