It was LeBron James’ game-winner that sealed the deal, but it was Luka Dončić’s scoring that powered the LA Lakers to a 120-119 win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, snapping their three-game skid.

Doncic led the offensive charge with 34 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, shooting an efficient 11-for-21 overall, including 6-for-10 from deep. Meanwhile, James struggled with his shot, going just 3-for-11 before delivering the clutch bucket.

With his performance, Doncic cracked the top five for the longest streaks of games with a made 3-pointer. Here’s the updated list:

#4. Kyle Korver

Korver holds the fourth-longest streak, draining a 3 in 127 straight games from Nov. 4, 2012, to March 2, 2014. At the time, this was the NBA record — until the sharpshooters ahead of him shattered it.

#3. Damian Lillard

Lillard strung together 150 consecutive games with a 3, a streak that ended last year in his first season with the Milwaukee Bucks. Though he has already gone three games this season without a made triple, Lillard remains a major deep threat, knocking down 37.6% of his 3s this year.

#2. Steph Curry

No 3-point list is complete without Steph Curry. The two-time MVP had a streak of 157 games with at least one 3, spanning from November 2014 to November 2016. But even that isn’t the longest streak — so who holds the No. 1 spot?

The only player who can outdo Steph Curry? Steph Curry himself. His record-breaking streak lasted five years, from Dec. 1, 2018, to Dec. 17, 2023.

Since 2023, he has only gone three games without making a three, all occurring in 2024. This year, Curry continued rewriting history by becoming the first player in NBA history to hit 4,000 career 3-pointers.
