On December 15, Beijing time, the Golden State Warriors challenged the New York Knicks back-to-back. Before this game, superstar Curry was only two three-pointers away from surpassing Ray Allen's regular-season three-point record, and before the first quarter of the game was over, Meng Shen successfully reached a milestone.
The attention of this match can be said to be the highest this season, Reggie Miller, who ranked in the top three in history in three-point shooting, served as one of the commentators for this game, and Ray Allen also came to the scene to watch, and the three generations of historical top scorers gathered in the basketball mecca of Madison Square Garden, and countless people were looking forward to the arrival of the historic moment. At this moment, Curry did not let everyone wait too long, with 10 minutes and 55 seconds left in the first quarter, Curry hit a super long three-pointer with the help of Green's cover, and chased Ray Allen. Then, with 7 minutes left, Curry received the ball and shot a three-point shot steadily.
As a result, Curry's career three-point shooting reached 2,974, officially surpassing Ray Allen's title of all-time three-pointer in regular season history. It is worth mentioning that Curry has only used 789 games to become the new three-point king, while Ray Allen has played a full 1300 games and Meng Shen has used 511 games less, which once again shows that Curry is the strongest three-point shooter in undisputed history.
Obviously, 2974 three-pointers is far from the end for Curry, who is still at his peak, and he will not only become the first player in NBA history to hit 3,000 three-pointers, but even have great hopes of impacting 4,000 three-pointers or more.
