Joe Harris nailed his first 3-pointer of Saturday’s game for the Brooklyn Nets after 16 seconds had passed. It was the first made basket for either the Nets or Houston Rockets, but that’s not why it was significant.
That 3-pointer was No. 532 in Harris’ career and No. 500 in a Brooklyn Nets uniform.
Harris is the fifth player to ever make 500 3-pointers while wearing a Nets uniform. The other four are Jason Kidd (813), Kerry Kittles (687), Vince Carter (638) and Joe Johnson (516).
Harris is the only one of the five players with 500-plus 3-pointers as a member of the Nets with a field goal percentage better than 38%. After nailing No. 500, Harris improved his 3-point percentage to 43.3%.
Harris’ milestone make was on the 1155th 3-point attempt of his career.
