NBA: Full List Of Teams With Most Points In A Half
The Phoenix Suns‘ game-high 107 points against the Denver Nuggets on November 10, 1990, set a record for the most points ever scored by a team in an NBA half. The Suns scored 173 points in total, compared to the Nuggets’ 143.
The Suns had five players with 20 or more points, including Cedric Ceballos, who came off the bench to score 32 points. The fact that Cedric’s 32, as previously indicated, was the highest mark attained by a player in Phoenix just serves to increase the amazement at this accomplishment. The Denver Nuggets lost by 30 points despite Orlando Woolridge’s 40 points.
In a time when 3-pointers were made at a very low rate, the Suns converted just two attempts into 0 made threes.They drained 67 shots from within the arc on 104 attempts to reach their 173 mark.
For the record, the Detroit Pistons scored 186 points against the Denver Nuggets on December 3, 1983, which is ironic given that 173 points isn’t the most total a team has ever scored in a game.
