Shake Milton Ties NBA Record With 13 Consecutive 3’s

Shake Milton hits 13 consecutive 3’s for the 76ers over his last three games.

Per ESPN, On Sunday, in a nationally televised bout against the title-contending LA Clippers, and with Simmons yet again sidelined because of injury, Milton appeared more than ready, as he scored a career-high 39 points during a 136-130 loss at Staples Center.

But he came out blazing with 26 points on 10-of-11 shooting in the first half, including 4-of-4 from 3-point range. In all, Milton made 14 of 20 shots, including 7 of 9 from 3-point range.

“Once the first couple ones knocked down,” he said, “I felt pretty good.”

At one point in the second half, Milton had made his first five 3-pointers and tied an NBA record for most consecutive 3-pointers made (13), a figure he set over the past three games.
