The Boston Celtics take on the Golden State Warriors in the woodshed at San Francisco's Chase Center on Thursday, with Peyton Pritchard adding even more to his team's incredible evening.
Pritchard moved ahead on the franchise's all-time 3-pointers list, passing the legendary Ray Allen for the No. 6 spot via Boston coverage manager Taylor Snow.
Former Oregon Ducks star Pritchard entered the Warriors game with 797 3-pointers in his NBA career with Boston, and Allen needed only one to tie the franchise list.
The 28-year-old Prichard has played all of his years in the NBA in Celtics colors, and he has developed into one of the team's more reliable offensive weapons.
With Jayson Tatum still out due to injury, Pritchard has seen increased playing time and has been rewarded by providing consistent scoring for Boston, mostly as a starter. During his first 53 games in the 2025–26 NBA season, Prichard averaged 17.2 points (career-high), 4.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists, while draining 2.6 3-pointers per outing.
Opposing defenses have paid more attention to Pritchard amid Tatum's absence. But he's still providing consistent offensive performance for the Celtics, who remain one of the league's best teams despite Tatum's injury.
Pritchard, whose current contract with Boston does not expire until the summer of 2028, can continue to compile more 3-point shots. Right above him on the list is Marcus Smart, who drained a total of 911 3-pointers as a Celtic.
Paul Pierce is the Boston franchise's all-time leader in 3-pointers with 1,823.
