Suns' Teletovic sets NBA record for most 3-pointers in a season by a reserve

Mirza Teletovic made his 165th 3-pointer of the season with 8:22 remaining in the second quarter against the Atlanta Hawks Tuesday, setting a new NBA record for the most 3-pointers made by a reserve in one season.

He passed Chuck Person’s record of 164 made 3-pointers, set in the 1994-95 season with the San Antonio Spurs.

The 30-year-old started only one game this season and has played in 75 of the team’s 78 games.
