Curry sets NBA record, hits at least five three-pointers in seven straight games
Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry set another NBA record.
The 30-year-old hit five three-pointers in the first half of the Warriors’ game against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.
He became the first player in NBA history to knock down at least five three-pointers in seven straight games.
Dallas Mavericks forward George McCloud connected on five or more three-pointers in six consecutive matchups in 1995-96.
The two-time MVP finished with 35 points, seven rebounds and seven three-pointers in Golden State’s 120-114 win over Brooklyn.
Stephen Curry has a new NBA record, hitting at least five three-pointers for the seventh-straight game. The previous record of six-straight games with at least five threes was set by George McCloud during the 1995-96 season.

Curry has had an impressive start to the 2018-19 season.
He has tallied 29 or more points in each of Golden State’s first seven games and knocked down 11 three-pointers in his team’s win over the Washington Wizards last week. He scored 51 points in that victory.
