In the NBA, 200 three-pointers in a single season are already a very remarkable achievement. So far, a total of 15 players in the NBA this season have met this standard, including Curry shooting 285 goals, which is far ahead. It is worth mentioning that four of the 15 players are rookies of the class of 2020, they are Bain, Edwards, Sadiq Bay and three goals.
According to statistics, Bain has shot 219 three-pointers, ranking 10th in the NBA. He is also the player who shot the most three-pointers in a single season in the rookie class of 2020. Edwards shot 204 three-pointers to rank 13th in the NBA. The Pistons' Sadiq Bay shot 201 three-pointers to rank 14th in the NBA. The Hornets also hit 201 three-pointers on three-pointers, tied for 14th place with Sadiq Bay.
Obviously, three-pointers have become an essential skill pack for new NBA stars. Compared to 10 years ago, NBA stars are more enthusiastic about shooting outside the three-point line. Just entering the second season of the league, these players can already achieve such results, which is really impressive. You know, Curry didn't reach the 200+ three-pointers in a single season until the fourth season of his career.
Of the four players mentioned above, Edwards and Sanshou are both under 21 years old. Three of them are also the youngest player in NBA history to shoot 200 three-pointers in a single season (20 years and 223 days). Based on their current performance, Healthy Health has played 15 seasons in the league and has every hope of breaking Curry's record for the league's total of three-pointers (currently 3117).
As a star of the founding era, Curry opened the NBA's small-ball era. His projection ability can be called a unique file in history. But as more and more young players enter the NBA stage, they grew up watching Curry play, and their way of playing will naturally be influenced by Curry. This is also a big reason for the surge in the three-point shooting ability of the league's newcomers. I believe that with the passage of time, there will be a star who will break Curry's record for the total number of three-pointers.
