Klay Thompson Sets Sights on Miami's Single‑Season 3‑Point Record

Overview

• Thompson signed with the Miami Heat this month after a reported buyout from the Dallas Mavericks and in team video this week asked what Miami’s single-season three‑point record is.
• The Heat record is 270 made threes, set by Duncan Robinson in 2019–20, and Thompson has previous seasons above 250 and a 301‑make career high.
• Reporting says Thompson gave up roughly $9.8 million in the Dallas buyout to join Miami on a lower‑paid two‑year deal that preserves the Heat’s roster and payroll flexibility.
• Thompson is expected to be used as a catch‑and‑shoot perimeter specialist alongside Tim Hardaway Jr., with his chance to chase the mark hinging on role, playmaking from Giannis Antetokounmpo, and staying healthy.
• Family comments and media coverage framed the move as a response to questions about his form, and a best‑case season could both boost Miami’s spacing and revive Thompson’s standing around the league.
