On a night when he became the NBA's all-time leader in playoff scoring, Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James also found himself moving up another prestigious list.
Drilling a shot from behind the arc at the 1:35 mark of the third quarter in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals Thursday night, James passed San Antonio Spurs guard Manu Ginobili for third on the all-time postseason 3-pointers list.
| Rank | Player | 3-Pointers |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ray Allen | 385 |
| 2 | Reggie Miller | 320 |
| 3 | LeBron James | 319 |
| 4 | Manu Ginobili | 318 |
| 5 | Stephen Curry | 295 |
| 6 | Kobe Bryant | 292 |
| 7 | Derek Fisher | 285 |
| 8 | Paul Pierce | 276 |
| 9 | Chauncey Billups | 267 |
| 10 | Robert Horry | 261 |

James now needs one more long-range bucket to tie former Indiana Pacers All-Star and current TNT analyst Reggie Miller for second.
