“1,524 3-pointers?! Stephen Curry is elite”: Buddy Hield showers love to GSW’s 2X MVP for knocking down the most 3-pointers since 2017
Stephen Curry has knocked down the most three-pointers (1,524) since 2017 followed by James Harden (1,473) and Buddy Hield (1,417).
When we talk about the game’s greatest shooter, Stephen Curry is the one name that is unanimously brought up in that conversation. As if it was there were any doubts before, the GSW guard broke the all-time three-point record and became the only man in league history to surpass the 3,000 3PM mark to establish himself as the best marksman in league history.
Now, since setting foot in the NBA back in 2009, Steph has knocked down 3,117 3-pointers. However, since 2017, the 2-time MVP has managed to knock down 1,524 3-pointers.
Keep in mind that Steph sat out for nearly the entirety of the 2019-2020 season, despite which he’s had the most 3-pointers in the past 5 years.

One is the gold standard the other are examples of Curry changing the game forever

Buddy Hield should also be appreciated for being 3rd on this list, who we know is only going to get better with time.
However, this stat displays just how insane Steph has been with his usage of the 3-point line. And we know for a fact, that the reigning FMVP won’t be slowing down anytime soon.
