NBA makes major Steph Curry announcement

On Thursday, Steph Curry made history after drilling his second 3-pointer to become the only player in NBA history to reach 4,000 made 3s. The Golden State Warriors superstar drilled his second three against the Sacramento Kings at the Chase Center.

The four-time NBA champion achieved the feat in the third quarter. Curry checked in after experiencing back tightness with under eight minutes left in the second quarter. But his three came in the third quarter, and the Chase Center roared with a standing ovation and MVP chants.

Curry's achievement is a testament to his status as an all-time great and one of the more legendary players in the NBA. The 36-year-old already has the record as the player with the most 3s in league history, surpassing former sharpshooter Ray Allen. Now, he stands alone as he hits the 4k 3-pointer mark.

Steph Curry finished the game with 11 points with 4-for-9 shooting from the field and 2-for-6 from the deep. He had two rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block as the Warriors trounced their crosstown rivals 130-104. The win now sees the Warriors improve to 38-28.
