Stephen Curry attempts to start new three-point streak
2 years ago - Sportingbase
Golden State Warriors point Stephen Curry is one of the best three-point shooters of all-time. He has made 3511 shots from downtown, the most in National Basketball Association history. However, one particular record came to an end on Sunday when the Golden State Warriors beat the Portland Trail Blazers 118-114. In the four-point Golden State win, Curry missed all eight of his three-point attempts. As a result, Curry’s streak of 268 straight games of making a three-point shot is over.
Curry’s streak began on December 1, 2018 in a 111-102 Warriors loss to the Detroit Pistons. This means he has not played without recording at least one three-point shot in over five years! What is even more remarkable is that Curry also holds the second longest three-point streak of 157 games.
Even though Curry was unsuccessful from making shots beyond the paint, he still scored seven points, had eight assists and was a +14 in the four-point Warriors win. The +14 was a game-high.
Then on Tuesday, Curry regained his three-point shot. He made six of 11 shots from beyond the arc, and had 33 points in a 132-126 Warriors win over the Boston Celtics. However, it is one three-point shot that has people who follow professional basketball buzzing. With the Warriors leading 127-126 with 11 seconds left in overtime, Curry caught a long pass from Chris Paul, and nailed a difficult three-point shot from 25 feet. A new streak of Curry making three points shots has started. Let’s see how long this streak lasts.
The Warriors improve to a record of 13 wins and 14 losses. They are a game back of the Phoenix Suns for a playoff spot in the West.
