Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics are among the league’s top title contenders nearing the seasons final stretch. With around 11 games remaining, Tatum and several of his teammates are closing in on Celtics history.
Celtics legend Isaiah Thomas has the most three-pointers in a single season for the C’s, he hit 245 long range shots in the 2016-17 season. Tatum, Derrick White and Peyton Pritchard all have at least 231 threes this season and counting.

After putting up 30 points, nine rebounds and nine assists in Sunday’s win over the Trail Blazers, Tatum is playing well and remains on track to surpass Thomas’ mark of 245. In fact, it may be more appropriate to wonder who exactly will finish the season at the top of the list, as Pritchard is known for his long-range heat checks.
Regardless, the Celtics seem well-prepared heading into the final handful of games.
