How many three-pointers did LeBron James make in his career-high 61-point game?

The story behind the answer

LeBron James made eight three-pointers in his career-high 61-point game.

James reached the total on March 3, 2014, when the Miami Heat defeated the Charlotte Bobcats. The performance surpassed his previous career high of 56 points and became the highest-scoring regular-season game by a Miami Heat player at that time.

He scored 61 points while making 22 of 33 field-goal attempts and 8 of 10 attempts from three-point range. His eight successful three-pointers were especially notable because they established a record for the most three-point field goals made in a 60-point game.

The performance remains one of the defining scoring games of James's Miami career. It combined extraordinary overall efficiency with a then-record shooting display from beyond the arc.
