The record was previously held by Klay Thompson’s teammate, Stephen Curry, who made 13 three pointers in one game. After connecting on 10 three pointers in the first half alone, Thompson was in the driver’s seat to break the record.

The Warriors dominated the game behind Thompson’s excellence, winning 149-124 over the Chicago Bulls.
