Paul George joined elite company and entered his name in the NBA record books on Sunday with his perimeter shooting. Although it wasn’t a particularly efficient day for the star who shot 4 of 13 from deep, the four 3-point shots he did make comprised a record breaking stat.
Those 3-pointers moved the needle for PG to 288 total perimeter shots made this season which ranks as the fifth most 3-pointers made in one season.
Looking at the names who rank among the top 10 Stephen Curry makes the list on five occasions. His 402 perimeter makes in 2015-16 ranks first.
