Kings forward Keegan Murray hit an NBA-record 11 straight 3s during his 47-point outing. He became the seventh player to make 12 or more 3s in a game.
— Keegan Murray made 12 3-pointers, including an NBA-record 11 straight, and scored a career-high 47 points to lead the Sacramento Kings to a 125-104 victory over the Utah Jazz on Saturday night.
The 12 3s were two shy of the league mark for most in a game, set by Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson in 2018.
Murray scored a franchise-best 26 points in the third quarter and had Thompson’s record in his sights after making 12 of his first 13 attempts. But the second-year forward missed his final two shots from behind the arc while becoming the seventh different player to make a dozen or more 3s in a game.
“I thought Keegan was playing the right way,” Kings coach Mike Brown said. “There was nothing really forced. Our guys didn’t really force anything to him. They just hit him when he was open.”
Sacramento forward Domantas Sabonis added 20 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists to register his seventh straight double-double and 20th this season.
