USA Today Sports
It took former three-time NBA All-Star and renowned marksman Peja Stojakovic 804 regular-season games over 13 seasons to convert 1,760 shots from behind the arc.
Reigning back-to-back MVP Stephen Curry eclipsed that mark with his 1,761st career 3-pointer Sunday against the Orlando Magic, and it only took him 539 games to get there.
By doing so, the Golden State Warriors All-Star surpassed Stojakovic for 13th on the all-time 3-pointers made list.
