This time is the NBA record for most consecutive games with at least a 3-pointer.
The baby-faced assassin sets this new record in the same arena where he overtook Reggie Miller to come second on the all-time 3-pointers list made in January 2021.
For more, here are a few must-know stats from Curry’s NBA record streak:
158: Longest match in a row with at least a 3-pointer
Given Curry’s current form, it’s safe to expect this streak to last more than 158, enough to break his previous record.
This achievement comes less than a month after Curry overtook Ray Allen for the most 3-pointers in the regular NBA season at Madison Square Garden and just days after he surpassed the 3,000 3-point mark.
1127: Curry’s Time
Now, Curry holds the record for the longest streak ever with at least a single 3-pointer but also holds the record for the longest streak in NBA history.
At 1127 days, from December 1, 2018 to January 1, 2022, His record spans over 1100, by far the longest ever. Apparently he was helped by the COVID-19 pandemic that hit for a century that forced a nearly five-month hiatus in the league in 2020.
After that, Curry and the Warriors did not participate in the Orlando bubble in the summer of 2020.
1: Only players with more than 100 match series
In NBA history, there have only been three instances where a player has shot at least a 3-pointer in at least 100 consecutive games, and Curry owns two of those three points.
Kyle Korver is another player with a 127-game streak, a match he scored between November 4, 2012 and March 2, 2014.
6: Number 11 game 3 pointers throughout the string
In this current series, Curry recorded 6 out of 12 games in his career have at least 11 3-pointers. The number six, in the recent three-year span, is more than double what anyone has done during their entire career in NBA history.
Klay Thompson and Damian Lillard, the next best, tied at two games each.
For games with at least 10 3-pointers, Curry has scored 12 of his 22 career games in this streak. The 12 is more than double the five for Thompson, who is second all-time.
