Donte DiVincenzo breaks Knicks’ single-season 3-point record
NY Post
SAN ANTONIO — Donte DiVincenzo is the new Knicks’ 3-point king.
The shooting guard nailed six treys in Friday night’s 130-126 OT loss to the Spurs, raising his total to 245 for the season to pass previous record-holder Evan Fournier.
DiVincenzo broke Fournier’s mark of 241 with his 3-pointer toward the end of the first half, already his third of the night.
“It’s cool, it’s a cool accomplishment. You look at the list of who is on there, it’s special,” DiVincenzo said. “We still have nine games to go. So there’s no real pressure. Just go out there and take the shots I’ve been taking all year.”
He shot 7 of 13 against the Spurs — including 6 of 12 on treys — with 20 points in 49 minutes.
The summer signing entered the game first in the Eastern Conference in 3-pointers made by a wide margin, having established himself as an elite outside shooter since joining the starting lineup.
