Stephen Curry Becomes First NBA Player to Hit 4,000 Career Three-Pointers

The Golden State Warriors star achieved the historic milestone during a game against the Sacramento Kings, further cementing his legacy as the greatest shooter in NBA history.

  • Stephen Curry reached 4,000 career three-pointers on Thursday night, becoming the first player in NBA history to achieve this milestone.
  • The historic shot came in the third quarter of the Warriors' game against the Sacramento Kings, off an assist from Moses Moody, just before Curry's 37th birthday.
  • Curry continues to lead the NBA in three-pointers made per game this season and has revolutionized the league with his deep shooting and offensive impact.
  • Since passing Ray Allen in 2021 as the NBA’s all-time leader in three-pointers, Curry has maintained his dominance, with James Harden and Damian Lillard trailing far behind on the all-time list.
  • The Warriors, bolstered by the recent acquisition of Jimmy Butler, have surged in the standings, with Curry averaging nearly 31 points per game since the trade.
