"10,000 Points on 3s Alone?!": 35-year-old Stephen Curry Keeps Making History, Starts an Elite Club for Himself

Stephen Curry continues to etch his name into the history books. He becomes the first player ever to score 10,000 points off of 3-point field goals alone.

Read that again, you might not have registered the impact of the stat line. Stephen Curry’s career tally of points includes 10,000 from just 3-pointers! For context, there are only 56 players with more than 10,000 points who are also active in the NBA.

Curry’s 3301 3-point make of his career dragged him through the 10,000 mark with ease. He now has 21,338 points in his career and is it really surprising to see the greatest shooter of all time have nearly half his points tally come from threes?

Internet reacts in awe as Stephen Curry reaches 10,000 points in 3s alone!

As news broke, so did Twitter. The frenzy surrounding the record was quite frantic and here are some of the best reactions.

Just take a look at these players who have less than 10,000 points, legends, almost all of them. And yet, Curry has more than them only from 3-point land.

Yes, that’s right, “holy s**t” was our reaction too!

And lastly, this guy summed it up. It is an honor to watch him play the game of basketball. One of the greatest offensive players of all time.
