Coby White is now well-represented in the Chicago Bulls’ history books.
Sinking his second 3-pointer of the night against the New York Knicks on Tuesday, White officially broke the franchise’s single-season record for made 3s. White is now at 205 and counting with three more regular season games to go. The previous record was held by Zach LaVine, who had 204 made 3s in 2022-23.

The modern era obviously plays a big role in the fact that we’ve seen this franchise record consistently topped in recent years. Still, we all know how talented of a scorer LaVine is, so White now claiming the No. 1 spot is worthy of a round of applause.
The 23-year-old guard also broke the rec༺ord in style! With just a second left before halftime against the Knicks, White st𒁏ole the inbound .
