Jarrett Allen volleyed the ball into his side on the jump ball. Buddy Hield recovered it by asking his support, drawing in stride to register a 3-pointer. The match had only started for three seconds…
A streak that set the tone for the shooter, who finished the game with 25 points at 10/14 shooting including 5/6 from afar, and for the Pacers in general, who ended the game with a superb 19/31 3-pointers!
With this 61.3% success by far, Tyrese Haliburton and his troupe have thus signed one of the ten most effective collective performances in history in terms of external address.
As for Buddy Hield, he probably signed a record. Because ESPN statisticians have not found a faster 3-pointer since the NBA notes all actions. Since 1996, the fastest 3-pointer was the work of Reggie Miller, author of an outside shoot in four seconds in March 2000, against the Warriors.
