During the Golden State Warriors’ win over the Portland Trail Blazers, something happened that hasn’t occurred since 2018.
Despite securing a much-needed victory, Steph Curry scored a season-low seven points. More notably, Curry failed to knock down a signature 3-pointer in a regular-season game.
Sunday’s game in Portland marked the first time since 2018 that Curry did not make a shot from beyond the arc, ending an NBA-record stretch of 268 regular-season games with a 3-pointer. Curry finished 0-for-8 from deep. Curry also owns the second longest such streak in NBA history (157 games).
While Curry struggled to find the bottom of the net, teammates Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins picked him up against the Trail Blazers on Sunday evening, Thompson tallied 28 points while Wiggins tacked on 25 points off the bench to help secure a 118-114 win over the Trail Blazers.
The two-time MVP will have the chance to start a new streak on Tuesday in a rematch of the 2022 NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics at San Francisco’s Chase Center.
