Ray Allen Sets All-Time 3-PT Record Tonight against the LA Lakers, Ray Allen of the Boston Celtics hit his 2,561st career 3-Point Field Goal. For sports fans and non-spots fans alike, this is one of the more impressive records in the NBA. Ray passed previous record holder Reggie Miller in slightly fewer shot attempts and far fewer games played.
The most impressive thing about Ray's new record is not the record itself but the story behind it. Ray is famous for his incredible work ethic and preparation. He gets to the arena long before any other player to start his own warm-up. He is an incredible team player and clearly gives his all every single game.
Another astonishing aspect of Ray's record is the way in which he has left all other 3-Pt competition in his wake. The active player with behind Ray in 3-pt shooting is Jason Kidd, who trails him by over 800 3's and is two years older. Nobody is even close to where Ray is, and most sports experts think Ray's 3-pt record will stand for years.
Whether you're an NBA fan or not, Ray Allen's record is a symbol for hard work and unmatched devotion that doesn't cease until the very best is reached.
