Royce O’Neale drained six triples in all, helping the Utah Jazz set a franchise record with 25 3-pointers in a 131-118 road win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
The team had previously made a record 22 triples in a double-overtime game against Denver in August. Friday night, the Jazz were 25 of 53 from deep.
