INDIANAPOLIS -- Charlotte's Kon Knueppel reached yet another milestone in a remarkable rookie season for the No. 4 pick out of Duke.
The Hornets swingman broke Keegan Murray's NBA rookie record for 3-pointers, making his 207th on Thursday night against the Indiana Pacers. Knueppel connected on five 3s in the first half and then broke the record in the third quarter.
It took Murray 80 games in 2022-23 to establish the record -- and Knueppel just 59 to surpass it.
Golden State's Stephen Curry holds the single-season NBA record with 402 3s.
