Celtics wanted Sam Hauser to make NBA history

When the Boston Celtics injury report was finalized on Sunday, the stage was set for some unique performances. Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, and Derrick White were all missing, meaning Boston’s role players would get a chance to shine.

Nobody knew that history was in the cards.

In just 22:49 of action, Sam Hauser nailed 10 three-pointers. Of the 94 performances in which a player has hit 10 or more threes, Hauser did it in the fewest number of minutes.

Hauser left the game midway through the third quarter with an ankle injury.
