February 21, 2021 by ArizonaSports.com - 98.7 FM Leave a Comment

The Phoenix Suns have been on an absolute tear as of late.

And in a 128-97 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night, the Suns set a franchise record for the most 3-pointers made in a single game.

Phoenix managed to convert 24 times from deep on 46 attempts (52.2%).

The 3-point barrage was put on by a combination of seven Suns players.

Those seven were Devin Booker (5), Cameron Payne (5), Mikal Bridges (4), Chris Paul (4), Dario Saric (3), Frank Kaminsky (2) and Jae Crowder (1).
