Stephen Curry breaks record for most 3-pointers in season

— -- Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry entered the record books twice on Saturday night, breaking the NBA single-season mark for 3-pointers and tying the mark for most 3-pointers in a game in a 121-118 overtime victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Curry held the previous single-season record of 286, which he set last season, and now has the three highest single-season totals in NBA history. He ended his night with a season total of 288 3-pointers.

"I didn't know that," Curry said when asked if he knew he'd set the single-season mark. "Thankfully that last one went in."

Curry made 12 of his 16 3-point attempts against the Thunder, tying the mark for most 3s in a game, held by Kobe Bryant and Donyell Marshall.

Curry rolled his ankle at 10:29 in the third quarter and missed five minutes to have it retaped. After re-entering the game, he scored 31 of his 46 points in 18:18 of action, shooting 9-of-15 from the floor, including 8-of-11 from 3-point range.

His final 3-pointer was especially dramatic, a 32-foot shot that broke a 118-118 tie with 0.6 seconds left in overtime to give Golden State the win.

Curry is shooting 50 percent (11-of-22) on shots from 30 feet and beyond this season, easily the best percentage of any player with at least five attempts. His 11 makes from that distance are the most this season; no other player has more than two, according to ESPN Stats & Info.

Curry also became the first player in NBA history to make at least 10 3-pointers in consecutive games. He made 10 of 15 attempts Thursday against Orlando.
