MCGREGOR BANNED

Quincy Acy helped the Brooklyn Nets set a franchise record with 24 3-pointers in a 124-96 victory over the host Chicago Bulls on Saturday night. The Nets finished one 3-pointer shy of the NBA record set last season by Cleveland. Acy had career highs with six 3-pointers and 21 points, and Allen Crabbe added five from behind the arc and 20 points.

Brooklyn got its fourth road win in its last five games.

It was Brooklyn’s second straight victory over the Bulls, something the Nets haven’t done since February 2008.

Conor McGregor and his hotheaded posse were banned from UFC 223 in Brooklyn after his antics during a chaotic fight week led to three fights on the card getting scrapped.

But his agent, Audie Attar, said on Twitter Saturday night as the crumbled card began that the former two-division champ “looks forward to getting back to fighting as soon as possible.”
