The basis of Golden State Warriors Stephen Curry entered this Tuesday in the history books of the NBA after becoming the top tripler in the American league, surpassing the mark of Ray Allen, during the game that the Californian team played against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden (96-105).
Curry finished the game with 5 triples of 14 attempts which places him with a total of 2.977 shots of three in his entire career. But the most important came 4.30 minutes after the start of the match when Curry overcame the opposition of Alec Burks from the right side of the line of three.
It was his second triple of the match and with which he finally surpassed the record set by Ray Allen, which was retired in 2014. Testimony to the quality of Curry and, above all, of how the NBA game has changed in recent years, the Warriors point guard has exceeded the number of Allen in 789 games.
Ray Allen needed 1.300 to reach 2.973 triples and Reggie Miller, the NBA’s third highest triplet, 1.389 matches to do 2.560. Curry scored his first triple in the NBA on October 30, 2009.
