Al Horford is on a pace to smash his season mark for most 3-pointers in a season in less than 10 games. Horford is 5 of 18 from 3-point range this season.
He was a career-best in makes (11) and attempts (36) last season. He’s halfway to besting those statistics after four games going into Tuesday’s game against the Heat.
Horford’s .278 shooting percentage from long range dropped after an 0 for 5 game against the Hornets on Sunday. Both Horford and Mike Budenholzer were comfortable with the attempts.
Horford took five 3-pointers in each of the past three games. He never attempted more than two a game in his previous eight seasons.
