Stephen Curry is now owner of the second spot on the NBA’s all-time 3-pointers list, and it should only be a matter of time until he’s knocking on first.
The Golden State Warriors star passed Reggie Miller on Saturday with the 2,561st 3-pointer of his career, scored early in the third quarter against the Utah Jazz. Curry eventually finished with 2,562 career 3-point makes, going 5-for-10 from deep with 24 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds in a 127-108 loss.
Only Ray Allen sits ahead of Curry on the list, with a record of 2,973.
At Curry’s current rate of about 4.1 3-pointers made per game since the 2012-13 season, it would take him only 101 games to pass the Hall of Famer. If you use his rate of 4.6 per game since 2015-16, that number goes down to 90. Either way, Curry is on track to break the record sometime next season barring injury or an inexplicable loss of form.
