Curry Breaks Astonishing Warriors Record

Stephen Curry is globally recognized as the greatest shooter in basketball history. With his offensive prowess, he has shattered numerous records in NBA history. This week, Curry has once again broken another record, surprisingly unrelated to his scoring ability.

Record Breaker Curry

Playing in his fifteenth NBA season, Curry has achieved almost every accolade available. He's secured championships, MVPs, scoring titles, and many more, but what truly stands out are his unmatched individual records.

For instance, Curry stands alone as the only player in NBA history to maintain a 50/40/90 shooting split while averaging over 30 points. Moreover, he holds the record for the most 3-point shots made in a career, surpassing Ray Allen in 2021.

Even at 35 years old, Curry continues to solidify his legacy, consistently breaking more records, including the recent milestone of surpassing the Warriors franchise record.

New Warriors Record

The new record Curry broke was for the most minutes played for the Warriors in franchise history. Following his last game, Curry has now totaled over 30,730 minutes for the franchise, surpassing Nate Thurmond as the all-time leader.

For the first time, we're witnessing a record broken by Curry that reflects something other than his offensive capabilities. This milestone demonstrates just how durable Curry has been, playing this many minutes while consistently performing at an MVP level.

What adds significance to this record is the reflection of his loyalty to one organization, a rarity in an era where most players switch teams frequently. With stars like Kevin Durant, James Harden, and even LeBron James changing teams, Curry's commitment highlights a different standard of player.
