Philadelphia teammates James Harden (354) and Danny Green (299) both enter the series with Miami ranked in the top 10 all time in playoff 3-pointers made. Can he maintain that level of efficiency when the Heat face the Sixers in the conference semifinals? Tucker has shot 40.5% from beyond the arc for his playoff career but shot the three at 53.5% (8-15) in the Heat’s first-round series against the Hawks.

That is as many as the next 2 players on the list combined (Klay Thompson with 28, Ray Allen with 21). Stephen Curry notched his 49th career playoff game with 5 3-pointers, most in NBA history. ![]() Thompson would need to average 5.3 triples per game over a full seven-game series to pass James the Golden State guard averaged 4.4 in the first round against Denver and during the regular season averaged 2.0 against Memphis (on 40% shooting). Thompson needs 37 triples to pass LeBron for second place - a mark that is not impossible, but also not likely, to hit in the conference semifinals. Klay Thompson needs just four 3-pointers to become the third player to reach the 400 mark in his playoff career, joining teammate Curry and LeBron James (432).
