As of October 29, 2025, Stephen Curry has done it once more. The Golden State Warriors’ legend became the first player in the 2025–26 NBA season to reach 20 made three-pointers. It is another milestone for the man who has already redefined how basketball is played. Curry, who shattered the 4,000 career three-pointer mark in March 2025, continues to push the limits of what fans thought was possible from beyond the arc.
In the opening four games of the new season, Curry has shown that age has not slowed him down. Averaging 29 points per game in just over 31 minutes, he has maintained elite efficiency with 51.4 percent shooting from the field and 45.5 percent from deep. He is also averaging 4.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and nearly 2 steals per game. These numbers reflect not only dominance but also balance, a hallmark of his enduring greatness.
A look at the early three-point leaderboard shows Curry ahead of the competition. Sam Merrill of the Cavaliers follows with 18, while Grayson Allen and Tyrese Maxey each have 15. Utah’s Lauri Markkanen rounds out the top five with 14. Even among younger stars, Curry’s consistency remains unmatched. His shooting stroke continues to dictate the pace of the modern game.
Curry’s career has been a constant rewriting of the record books. No other player has reached the heights he has from three-point range. He stands alone as the only player in NBA history to cross the 4,000 mark in regular season threes. His 2015–16 campaign, in which he made 402 threes, still stands as the single-season record, a feat few have even approached. He has led the league in made threes eight times, proving that his brilliance is not a fleeting trend but an era of its own.
His streak of 268 consecutive games with at least one made three-pointer also remains untouched. Five times in his career, Curry has surpassed 300 made threes in a single season. These numbers go beyond records they tell the story of a player who changed the geometry of the court and inspired a generation to shoot from distances once thought ridiculous.
At 37 years old, Curry’s form is still poetry in motion. He doesn’t simply shoot; he creates moments. Each deep shot carries a history of precision, repetition, and audacity. Younger players like Maxey, Merrill, and Allen are thriving in a league built on Curry’s foundation. His influence has become basketball’s language, spreading across rosters, playbooks, and playgrounds around the world.
Curry’s presence continues to be a pillar for the Warriors, who remain a dangerous team in the West. As long as their leader keeps setting the rhythm from beyond the arc, Golden State’s offensive flow remains one of the most beautiful sights in sports. Every time he crosses half-court, there’s an unspoken tension, a collective breath from the audience, waiting to see the inevitable swish.
There was a time when breaking the 200 mark in threes was considered elite. Now, because of Curry, 300 is the new standard. His longevity and consistency are redefining what greatness looks like. This start to the 2025–26 season is yet another reminder that his reign as the greatest shooter alive continues, unchallenged and undiminished.
