‘Job isn’t done Steph Curry, Jesus Shuttleworth is waiting for you’: Reggie Miller surprises Warriors star after overtaking his record by congratulating him during postgame presser

Steph Curry passed Reggie Miller for all-time regular season 3-pointers made in the Warriors’ 127-108 loss to the Jazz last night.

Curry was a lone ranger for the Warriors in a blowout loss to a team clearly more talented than his. He shot 9-of-18 from the field and 5-of-10 on 3-pointers to finish with a game-high 24 points. But the Jazz were bombing 3-pointers and stifling the Warriors offense with ease. They went 20-of-50 from 3-point range on the night.

The Jazz also held a massive edge in rebounding – 14 offensive boards to the Warriors’ 4, and 57 boards overall in comparison to the Warriors’ paltry total of 35.

The Warriors essentially lost the game with a terrible second quarter, in which they bled 38 points while scoring just 17. A halftime deficit of 30 points put paid to any hopes they had of getting a W on the road. The Jazz now move to tied second in the West with the Clippers. They’re the hottest team in the league, on an 8-game win streak.
