NBA
The Kings’ unlikely record raised the bar to unimaginable heights
Thanks to the 12 three-pointers they scored in the first half of the game against the Grizzlies, the Kings now hold the top spot on the list of all-time goals scored in 12 minutes. Which team will manage to break their record?
Basketball has changed a lot and will continue to change, especially in the NBA, with teams increasingly relying on the three-point shot. Of course, what the Sacramento Kings achieved in the first half of the winning game against the Grizzlies has never happened before in history, it’s a record and it may not be repeated in the future.
Because of the 47 points the Royals scored in the first 12 minutes of the game, 36 came from shots outside the 7.25-yard line. In fact, Mike Brown’s team started behind the line with 10/10 tries before missing one.
It was only natural that this surreal situation didn’t last for the rest of the game, as the Kings didn’t get to play until 10/27. found the target and presented a…normal 55% in the final.
Individually, it was Harrison Barnes who scored the first three before scoring four of five to end the match at 6/9. Trey Lyles, who came on, netted as many others at better odds (6/8), while Keegan Murray matched them both at 5/7 3-pointers.
In these conditions, it was inevitable that the new triple-double would be eclipsed by Domantas Sabonis (14 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists).
