The Warriors previously accomplished a similar feat eight years ago when the infamous 73-9 team scored 108 points in a win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Jan. 30, 2016, with just one free throw.

The feat shouldn’t be all that surprising considering Golden State (36-32) averages the seventh-most points per game (118.6), but the 25th-most free throws (20.8 ) per game in the NBA this season.
