The greatest shooter in NBA history, Stephen Curry, has etched his name atop another list, becoming the first player in the league’s history to hit 4,000 career three-pointers.
Curry entered the Golden State Warriors’ Thursday night matchup against the Sacramento Kings needing two more triples to reach the historic mark.
His first came midway through the first quarter when Jonathan Kuminga found him wide open, and Curry calmly drained the shot, bringing him to career three No. 3,999 as the Warriors jumped out to a 14-6 lead.
Less than a minute later, he launched another attempt but missed the mark.
With the Chase Center crowd buzzed with anticipation, Curry didn’t get another opportunity from beyond the arc until late in the second quarter, when his shot missed short, with less than four minutes remaining.
Prior to the game, the Warriors superstar was seen in discomfort with what the TNT broadcast described as tightness in his back. Cameras caught him on the bench during the game, with the area wrapped and a heat pad applied.
