NBA Sets Records in Three-Point Shooting Season

Derrick White of the Boston Celtics has set a new franchise record for the most three-pointers made in a single season, surpassing Isaiah Thomas' previous record. White's evolution into a top-tier shooter was partly fueled by his performance in the 2022 NBA Finals, where the Golden State Warriors' defensive approach motivated him to improve drastically. This season, White has become a crucial offensive asset for the Celtics, who are striving to repeat as NBA champions. Meanwhile, his teammates Jayson Tatum and Payton Pritchard are also close to surpassing Thomas' former record, highlighting the Celtics' prolific three-point shooting strategy. The team's success is further underlined by their 6-0 road trip victory, marking another historic achievement for the franchise. In broader NBA news, James Harden's recent three-pointer marked the league's 30,000th of the season, as the NBA continues to break records for three-point shots made and attempted.
