He only needed one winning shot to overtake Reggie Miller but Damian Lillard had his hand shaking at the start against the Lakers. The Bucks playmaker missed his first four attempts, before finding the target at the end of the first period.
It was therefore his 2,561st 3-point shot in his career, one more than the former Pacers legend. “Dame” thus takes fourth place alone in the ranking of the most prolific shooters in history, behind Stephen Curry, Ray Allen and James Harden.
“Congratulations to Dame for continuing to climb the rankings”, reacted the former All-Star, now a TNT consultant. “I always loved his mentality and his approach as a shooter. He worked long hours to be among the best in the world. May he continue to be successful. »
As he scored four winning baskets in Los Angeles, Damian Lillard has 2,564 successes behind the arc. He is still far from James Harden, third with 2,910 3-pointers, and Ray Allen, second with his 2,973 shots. And what about the gap with the leader, Stephen Curry, 3,680 3-point baskets on the clock.
