On Wednesday night, Stephen Curry, the two-time Kia MVP and all-time 3-point leader, made NBA history with a 26-foot 3-pointer at the 9-minute mark of the third quarter against the LA Clippers. He became the first player to drill seven or more 3-pointers in four consecutive games, a remarkable feat that no other NBA player has achieved before. Curry’s record-breaking performance saw him make 9 out of 19 3-pointers, scoring a game-high 41 points in a 130-125 loss.
For the month of February, Curry has been on fire, connecting on 7 or more 3s in 5 of 8 games. This is a testament to his incredible skills as a shooter and his unwavering dedication to the game. He’s currently averaging 28 points, 4.9 assists, and 42.1% from beyond the arc this season, making him one of the most dangerous players on the court.
Curry’s career has been nothing short of remarkable. He’s made 10 or more treys 12 times in his career, with his career high in a game being 13, set on November 7, 2016, against the Pelicans. It’s worth noting that just a little over two years ago, in December 2021, Curry surpassed Ray Allen as the all-time 3-point leader with 2,974. The 35-year-old future Hall of Famer currently has made 3,640 treys in his career, an impressive record that cements his place as one of the greatest shooters in NBA history.
