The 'Most 5 3-pointer NBA games' quiz

The Detroit Pistons found themselves down by as many as 22 points in the second half of their 2026-27 season opener against the Boston Celtics. But in today’s NBA, 20+ point leads aren’t nearly as safe as they used to be, especially when facing a sharpshooter like Duncan Robinson.  

The now-nine-year NBA veteran scored all 21 of his points from either three-point range or the free throw line, with 15 coming in the final 12 minutes. 

The Pistons finished with the best record in the Eastern Conference last season but –  after needing seven games to dispatch the Orlando Magic in the First Round of the Playoffs – were ousted by the Cavaliers in seven themselves in the next round. With Robinson along with the Pistons big three of Cade Cunningham, Ausaur Thompson and Jalen Duren back in the Motor City, Detroit will expect to contend in the East once again. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Robinson made five triples in an NBA game for the 95th time in his career. With that being said, can you name the NBA players with at least 70 such games?

Good luck!
