The Rockets already had the record earlier this season when they made 26 in a December win over the Washington Wizards.
James Harden was unsurprisingly a big part of the success, shooting 5-of-6 from beyond the arc to finish with 39 points. However, it was a balanced effort with four other players scoring at least 28 points and eight different players making at least one three-pointer.
Eric Gordon went 8-of-13 on his own from beyond the arc.
Houston entered the day leading the NBA with 16.1 made threes per game, well ahead of the second-place Milwaukee Bucks with 13.5 per game.
