Kings set a new franchise record with their insane shooting spree

The Sacramento Kings and Harrison Barnes are ready to take the spotlight early in the week. Their hot start against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night was indicative of that.

The Grizzlies and Ja Morant were completely caught off guard by the Kings’ 12 three-pointers in the first quarter. With that, Sacramento set a new club record for most three-pointers made in a quarter.

“WOW. Malik Monk with the Kings 12th three-pointer of the 1st period. Kings franchise record for tonight was 9 for most in a quarter and it happened 5 more times. Sacramento is now 12/13 on the night of the perimeter leading the Grizzlies 47-33 after the first quarter.

(The above statement is taken from Link points).

Barnes’ shooting was the hottest of the night, as he made five of his six three-point attempts in the first quarter to score 15 points. Keegan Murray, a rookie, was also excellent, as he hit a perfect 3-for-3 from long range in the opening period. Trey Lyles scored two 3-pointers off the bench in the second quarter, while Davion Mitchell and Malik Monk made one each.

If you are an NBA fan, you must know about the players, is it not? Do you know how much they earn? Well, in some of our posts, we have talked about the wealth and earnings of some NBA players.

There is no question that the Kings have the shooting ability to compete with any team in the NBA this year. However, it is very doubtful that the Kings will be able to maintain such a high level of shooting for an entire season. As of Monday’s game, the Kings were 10th in the NBA in 3-point percentage (36.7) and 7th in 3-point field goal percentage (13.5) in the league.
