Modern NBA teams knock down 3-pointers at a record rate.
Since the NBA adopted the 3-point line during the 1979-80 season, and Boston Celtics guard Chris Ford knocked down the first 3-point field goal in league history on Oct. 12, 1979, long-range jump shots have become a major part of NBA offensive game plans.
The team record for the most made 3-pointers in a single NBA game is 29, accomplished first by the Milwaukee Bucks in 2020 and later matched by the Celtics and Grizzlies in 2024 and 2026, respectively.
