Warriors down Lakers behind historic 3-point shooting night

LOS ANGELES -- Three-point shooting has become almost synonymous with the Golden State Warriors over the last decade.

With two of the most prolific perimeter shooters in NBA history, it's part of their game plan every night. But it doesn't always work. Against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night, though, it was their calling card in a 134-120 victory.

The Warriors shot 63.4% from 3 on 26-of-41 shooting, the best 3-point field goal percentage in a game in NBA history (minimum 40 attempts), according to ESPN Stats & Information research.
