Sacramento’s Murray hits record 11 straight 3s

Keegan Murray made 12 3-pointers, including a league record 11 straight, and notched a career-high 47 points to secure the Sacramento Kings 125-104 win against the Utah Jazz.

The twelve 3s were 2 shy of the NBA mark for most in a match, set by the Warriors player Klay Thompson in 2018.

Keegan notched an organization-best 26 points in the 3^rd quarter and had Klay’s record in sight after making 12 of his 1^st 13 tries. But Murray missed his final 2 attempts from the 3-point line while becoming the 7^th different basketballer to score a dozen or more 3s in a match.

“For me, Murray was playing the right way,” Sacramento manager Mike Brown shared. “There was nothing forced. Our players didn’t force anything on him. They just passed him the ball when he was open.”
