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.
