Hield dropped a 3 right off the bat.
The scoring column was found by Buddy Hield right away.
He did it in style.
Three seconds into the game, the Pacers' sharp-shooter grabbed a jump ball out of midair that Allen had swatted his way, pivoted to the top of the key and calmly connected on a 3-pointer.
The bucket is the fastest 3-pointer in play-by-play history. Reggie Miller had the old record when he hit a 3 at 11:56 of the opening quarter against the Golden State Warriors.
The Pacers scored a season high in points against a Cleveland team that entered the game with the best defense in the NBA.
Hield shot 5 of 6 from the 3-point range. The Pacers have never had a player with 60 or more 3s in a month. It was his fourth game in a row in which he made at least four 3s.
