The aggressive revolution has done it triple are becoming increasingly important in nba. A launch that has become a necessity for all those who aspire to win but which very few have managed to conquer.
Sometimes there were outbursts that made history, nights in which a player scored more than 10 triples. That double-digit barrier is what separates a great performance from a forgettable one.
But, Who were the players with the most 10 triples in NBA history? It’s time to review it.
Stephen Curry: 22 games

The 22 Stephen Curry games with ten or more triples show that it was no mere coincidence: He is the best shooter in NBA history.
On November 7, 2016, he scored 13 in a win against the New Orleans Pelicans, a record until surpassed by the other member of the Splash Brothers.
No one else has added more than 10 games and the Warriors star is already in his twenties. In the 2020-2021 season alone he got a total of 7, which would be worth the most in history.
Klay Thompson: 6 games

Clay Thompson He ranks second on the list for most games with 10 or more 3-pointers with a total of 6 duels.
The guard, on the other hand, grabbed the record for most triples made in the same game on October 29, 2018 against the Chicago Bulls. Clay attempted 24 3-pointers and made 14, 58.3% of his shots from the perimeter.
The previous high was 11 on January 23, 2015 against the Sacramento Kings in a night with a 73.3% accuracy rate.
Damian Lillard: 4 games

The third on this particular list is none other than Damian Lillard which since 2018 has succeeded overall 4 games with 10 or more 3-pointers.
The first occurred on November 28, 2018 when he allowed 10 of 15 Orlando Magic attempts.
We had to wait until 2020 for him to do it again, first against the Warriors and later against the Nuggets.
The fourth occasion occurred on December 12, 2022 when he went 11 of 17 against the visiting Timberwolves.
JR Smith: 3 games
A surprise on this list, since JR Smith established himself as the fourth-most career 3-pointers: two with the Denver Nuggets in 2009 against the Sacramento Kings (high, 11 3-pointers) and Atlanta Hawks (10).
The next was in 2014, already with the jersey of the New York Knicks, against the Miami Heat.
A curiosity: he never made it to the point as a teammate Lebron James to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
James Harden: 3 games

James Harden close the historical ranking with 3 meetings throughout his career with 10 or more triples.
The first chance was January 3, 2019 against the Warriors, where he went on a 10-of-23 shooting streak. Almost a year later, on Dec. 11, he went 10 for 18 against the Cavs. And two days later 10 of 15 in visiting the Orlando Magic.
