Bombs from Trey
In their final home game of the regular season, the Rockets established a new NBA record for most threes made in a single game with 27-made threes; surpassing the previous record of 26-made treys. Which, was accomplished twice by the Rockets during the 2018-19 campaign.
Since February 15, the Thunder have allowed 38.2 percent accuracy from the perimeter to the opposition. The percentage is the fifth-highest in the entire league and the highest among current playoff teams.
Perimeter defense will be key in the home finale this evening, if the Thunder wish to control their own destiny and finish 13 games above .500 at home, they will show up and compete swiftly on the defensive end.
