NBA Fans Praise Stephen Curry for Setting All-Time Record for 3-Pointers

Stephen Curry made NBA history on Tuesday night. While playing against the New York Knicks, the Golden State Warriors star set the all-time three-pointer record passing Ray Allen to knock down the 2,974th of his career, as mentioned by ESPN. The shot happened in the first quarter and the Warriors took a timeout so they could celebrate with Curry. 

"It was a beautiful ending to this last week," Curry said after the game. "The buildup to getting this number, it was a special atmosphere. I knew the Garden would deliver just in terms of how iconic this place is — I can't say it enough, I appreciate so much the way the fans embraced the moment with me and let me kind of get lost in it. I could feel it. Once I took the shot on the wing, it just felt good, looked good — it felt like we were at home."  

"It was a special moment, for sure, that I appreciate and I'll remember for the rest of my life, in terms of what it means to me to pass Ray," Curry added. "Him and Reggie [Miller], guys I've looked up to coming into the game. Definitely special."  Here's a look at NBA fans praising Curry for making history.
