Curry Looking to Pass Ray Allen On All-Time 3 Pointers List

Steph Curry is undoubtedly the greatest 3 point shooter in NBA history. He currently sits in second place on the all time 3 pointers made list with 2,964 3 pointers made in his 13th year. Hall-of-Famer, Ray Allen, currently sits at number 1 with 2,973 3 pointers made throughout his 18 years in the league.

At this point, thereโ€™s no way that Curry doesnโ€™t absolutely shatter Allenโ€™s record. The question is, how far will he run away with it? It took Ray Allen 1,300 games to hit all those 3 pointers. Steph Curry has played a total of 786 games. 514 GAMES FEWER. Absurd.

Currently, Curry is averaging 3.8 3PT per game. That means if he stays at his current rate, he would break Allenโ€™s 3 point record in his game against the Knicks on December 14th in Madison Square Garden. Assuming he hits more than 4 per game, he could break it the 13th against the Pacers in Indiana.

During a game in 2016 against the Pelicans, Curry hit 13 3PT during the game so itโ€™s not impossible that he breaks the record against the 76ers tomorrow, especially because theyโ€™ll be in the Chase Center. Whenever it does happen, itโ€™ll be a special night for the NBA and Curry will hold that record for a long, long time.
