PRAGUE (Czechia) - Canadian sharp-shooter Bridget Carleton has fired her way into the EuroLeague Women record books after becoming the first in the modern era to score nine three-pointers in a game.
Carleton made it rain for ZVVZ USK Praha in their 98-55 win against Flammes Carolo Basket - eventually finishing with 29 points thanks to her amazing work from long-range which saw her going 9 of 12.
In fact, Carleton wasn't the only Praha baller who found the hot-hand from the arc, with Janelle Salaun going 5 of 6 and that contributed to the Czech side finishing with 17 sunk threes - the joint third highest tally by any team in the competition.
Carleton's new high tide mark also sees her step above some illustrious names and none more so than EuroLeague Women legend, Diana Taurasi.
Meanwhile, Carleton herself was one of the ballers previously sharing the record, having dropped 8 triples when playing for Uni Gyor two seasons ago.
