It seems hard to believe that the top scorer of triples both in the regular season and in the playoffs, is not the one who holds that mark, but the reality is that the base of the Golden State Warriorshas stayed close.
The player who has this record is Damian Lillardbase of the Portland Trail Blazerswho last season, made 12 shots from beyond the arcin game 5 of the first round of the playoffs against the Denver Nuggets.

That game, Damian Lillard finished with 55 points, 12 of 17 triples, 10 assists, 6 rebounds, 3 blocks and a steal.
