At this point in time, there is no denying that Stephen Curry is the greatest shooter the game of basketball has ever witnessed. Over the course of his distinguished career, the Golden State Warriors MVP has redefined the way the sport is played and has had broken several records while achieving incredible feats with the way he uses the three-point line.
Earlier this past month, Steph achieved arguably the most prestigious 3-point record ever. The Baby-Faced Assassin surpassed Ray Allen (2,973) for the all-time 3-point record. And the 2-time MVP has been showing absolutely no signs of slowing anytime soon.

On his way to scoring 23 points, 4 assists, and 4 rebounds, while knocking down 5 3-pointers, Chef Curry is now the only player in history to reach the 3,000 3-pointers made mark.

Stephen Curry is in the midst of yet another MVP-type campaign. Averaging 27.7 points, 5.9 assists, and 5.3 rebounds per game, Curry is leading the GSW to a league-best 27-7 record. It’s safe to say that the Warriors will keep witnessing this kind of success if Steph continues to play on this elite level.
