On November 7th, 2016, playing at Oracle Arena against Anthony Davis and New Orleans Pelicans, Curry torched the Pels scoring 46 points, shooting 13-17 from the distance with a 3-point field-goal percentage of 76.5. Stephen Curry broke his own record of 12 3-pointers and became the sole possessor of the record that still stands today. The Golden State Warriors won the game 116-106.

This is a record that is very tough to be broken and looking at the way things are going, don't be surprised if Steph breaks his own record yet again. Steph Curry makes shooting look so effortless and one should only be ready for many other shooting records that will be broken by Curry in the upcoming years.
