Two of the very best

#1 Stephen Curry

Detroit Pistons v Golden State Warriors
Stephen Curry

Steph Curry is already the greatest shooter of all time. He ranks 10th all-time in 3 Pointers made and there's a pretty good chance that he'll be 4th by the end of this season. No one in NBA history can match Steph when it comes to his range and shooting off the dribble, something he has used to devastating effect en route to obliterating the single-season record for 3 pointers made.

He currently holds the top 3 spots for 3s made in a season, with 402, 324 and 286 makes in 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2014-15 respectively. He is the only player in NBA history to have back-to-back games with at least 10 3s and holds the record for most makes in a game, with 13.

His efficiency makes it all the more outrageous. He's making 3s at an all-time record pace but still ranks 3rd all-time in percentage. In 2015-16, he recorded his only entry into the 50-40-90 club and was the 1st player to average over 30 PPG while doing so. By the time he hangs up his boots, Curry will probably obliterate every 3 point shooting record there is.
