The tweet posed a question: Which Hilltopper started the program’s streak of consecutive games with at least one made 3-pointer?
The streak that Lee started stood at 990 games whenever he learned of it. Now it’s up to 999 and can leap into quadruple digits Thursday night.
WKU (13-10 overall, 6-4 Conference USA) will try for its 1,000th straight game with at least one made 3 on Thursday when it battles Rice (9-14, 4-6). CBS Sports Network will broadcast the 8 p.m. matchup in Houston.
WKU faced Syracuse that day in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
