Tim Hardaway Jr. a career milestone, a wide-open 3-pointer against the Blazers
The Denver Nuggets may be missing some key pieces in the frontcourt, but Tim Hardaway Jr. is getting older the perimeter remains dangerous. On Friday night at the Moda Center, the veteran scorer etched his name into the NBA record books, breaking his 2,000th. career 3-pointer during the first quarter against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Hardaway Jr. entered the night needing just one three-pointer to reach the milestone. He didn’t keep the Mile High faithful waiting long. With the Nuggets offense getting going early, Hardaway Jr. found himself with a clear look from deep and buried it, becoming just the 16th player in NBA history to reach 2,000. It’s a testament to the longevity and sheer scoring ability of a player who was a flamethrower for the New York Knicks, Atlanta Hawks, Dallas Mavericks, and now the Nuggets.
