Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry is arguably the best three-pointer shooter in the history of the league. Steph proved it once again tonight as he added another jewel to his crown. Curry is now 2nd on the all-time three-pointers made list, passing NBA legend Reggie Miller.
The Warriors are yet to find their touch this season, and their struggles are pretty apparent against Utah Jazz. They were down by 30 points at halftime and it’s not looking pretty for the Dubs.
Although it’s almost decided that they will face their 8th defeat of the season, Steph Curry is putting on a show.

The most surprising aspect of this record from Curry is he took just 715 games to reach this milestone! For comparison, both Ray Allen and Reggie Miller took over 1000 games to complete the same.
While Steph is breaking records, his Warriors are struggling. With this defeat against the Utah Jazz, their record will worsen to 8-8 for the season. Can the Dubs still turn around their season? Well, this remains the biggest question for them right now.

Ever since their last NBA Finals appearance in 2019, the Warriors are on a downward trajectory. Last season, they finished with the worst record in the league due to untimely injuries. But this season, fans expect them to make a roaring comeback.

However, so far, opponents are walking all over the Golden State Warriors. If they want to make it back to the NBA Finals, they need to improve right now. Furthermore, this season will have only 72 games, so the Dubs do not have time on their side.
