As we begin the 2023-24 National Basketball Association season, some things stay the same. One common trend is the fact that Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is amazing from downtown. On Monday, Curry became the first NBA player ever to make a minimum of four three-pointers in the first eight games of the season as the Warriors beat the Detroit Pistons 120-109. Curry is the greatest three-point shooter of all-time. His 3437 are the most ever.
Curry began the streak this season with four made three-pointers in a 108-104 loss to the Phoenix Suns on October 24. That was followed by seven made three-pointers in a 122-114 Warriors win over the Sacramento Kings on October 27, six three-pointers made in a 106-95 Warriors win over the Houston Rockets on October 29, seven made three-pointers in a 130-102 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on October 30, four made three-pointers in a 102-101 win over the Kings on November 1, five made three-pointers in a 141-139 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on November 3, and seven three-points made in a 115-104 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on November 5.
On the season, Curry has made 47 of 99 three-point attempts overall. He leads the NBA with 247 total points and 47 three-points made. Curry also has 30.9 points per game, 4.8 rebounds per game, 4.3 assists per game, and one steal per game. He has a field goal percentage of .530, three-point percentage of .475, and a free-throw percentage of .913.
The Warriors are now at six wins and two losses. They have the third best record in the Western Conference. They are only behind the 7-1 Denver Nuggets and the 6-1 Dallas Mavericks.
