Ray Allen saves the day with a 3-pointer for the Win

No surprises when you have already seen Steph at No.2. It is Ray Allen, who is on the top of the ladder for the highest number of 3-pointers made in the playoffs history. A 2-time NBA Champion, Ray Allen is one of the all-time greats when it comes to 3-point shooting.

He had the ability to shoot from anywhere on the court with much precision. He was one of the main reasons why Celtics were able to dominate consistently during his Boston days.

His career-defining shot, however, came during his time with the Miami Heat when he shot a game-winner from the corner after collecting the pass from Chris Bosh against the San Antonio Spurs in game 6 of the NBA Finals. Miami Heat went on to win the series and championship in a well fought seven game series.

Ray Allen made 385 3-pointers after attempting 959 shots with a 3-point field percentage of 40.1. He was also the winner of the 3-point shooting contest in 2001.

Given Curry's meteoric rise, he will most likely rise to No. 1 spot in what could be just 3 more games.
