Indiana Pacers' Buddy Hield sets NBA record with 3-pointer 3 seconds into game vs. Cavaliers

Indiana Pacers guard Buddy Hield loves shooting 3-pointers. He came into Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers with the most 3-pointers in the league this season (132) while hitting 41.9% from long range.

But who could have been ready for this? Cleveland's Jarrett Allen tapped the opening jump ball right to Hield, who turned and made a 3-pointer. The basket was made about 3 seconds into the game.

That's the fastest 3-pointer to start a game during the NBA's play-by-play era, which began in 1996. Hield broke the mark of Pacers legend Reggie Miller, who made a 3-pointer 4 seconds into a game in 2000.
