The Warriors Worries The Kings With Three Pointers In A Pre-season Encounter.

The Golden State Warriors made 28, 3-pointers in their 122-112 preseason win against Sacramento kings at Golden 1 Center.

The warriors surpass their franchise record of 27 in the regular season. The new-look Warriors hoped to get back to their sharpshooting ways without franchise icon Klay Thompson in the mix. A bad one for the Kings still searching for their defensive mojo.

Former Kings guard Buddy Hield was 6 of 7 from deep off the bench. De’Anthony Melton and Jonathan Kuminga each added four 3s. Steph Curry and Lindy Waters III added three.

Golden State warriors known for their high-velocity 3-point team, shot 28 of 52 (53.8 percent) from deep. But the Kings didn’t do much to challenge those efforts.

Brown estimate of the 52 3s the Warriors attempted, about 30 of them were “wide open,” leaving them no other choice but to punish the Kings’ defenders and put the rock up and in.

Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown believes if this was the regular season his side would have been on the history books for the highest 3s recorded but also indicated that is an opportunity for them to get a good defence before the start of the season.
