Stephen Curry Passes Kobe Bryant on Postseason 3-Point List

Bleacher Report Milestones
May 23, 2017

The Golden State Warriors finished off the San Antonio Spurs with a 129-115 victory Monday's Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals in San Antonio.

Not only did the team win an unprecedented 12th straight gameย to begin a postseason, but star point guard Stephen Curry reached a personal milestone, passing Kobe Bryant for fifth place on the all-time three-point postseason field goal list, per NBA History.

Curry finished the night with 295 three-point shots made over five playoff appearances for the Warriors. The next on the sharpshooter's next target comes in the form of a potential NBA Finals opponent. LeBron James has 314 for his career and sits fourth on the list. Ray Allen (385) leads the category, with Reggie Miller (320) sitting a distant second and Manu Ginobili (318) third.

The 29-year-old floor general has knocked down 53 three-point attempts in 12 games this postseason, averaging 4.4 makes per contest. Should he continue at that pace in the Finals, Curry would have a legitimate shot at passing both Ginobili and Millerโ€”and potentially LeBron as well.

In just his eighth professional campaign, Curry has already earned himself two MVP awards, four All-Star nominations and four All-NBA team selections. Andre Iguodalaย took home the Finals MVP award when Golden State won the title in 2015, but Curry has a chance to add that to his mantle if the club wins it all again this season.

The Warriors await the winner of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celticsโ€”a series that Cleveland leads 2-1 heading into Game 4 at home on Tuesday.
