Most 3-point field goals in a game by player in NBA history (Associated Content)

To date the most 3-point field goals made in an NBA game by one player is 12, which has been done by two players. This is one NBA record I expect to be broken in the not too distant future. This season on November 27, 2010 Dorell Wright of the Golden State Warriors sank 9 out of 12 three point shots to get within shouting distance of the record. Last season J.R. Smith of the Denver Nuggets made 10 three-pointers in a game and Rodrique Beaubois of the Dallas Mavericks and Chauncy Billups also on the Nuggets both made 9 three-pointers in a game.
