Steph Curry Made NBA History In Hawks-Warriors Game
On Wednesday evening, the Golden State Warriors are hosting Dejounte Murray and the Atlanta Hawks at the Chase Center in California.
Two-time MVP Steph Curry is playing in his 920th career game, which moves ahead of Serge Ibaka and Robert Reid and ties Larry Nance for 234th on the NBA's all-time regular season games played list.
Following Nance, the next players for Curry to pass will be Richard Hamilton (921) and Dick Van Arsdale (921).
Curry came into the evening with averages of 26.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists per contest while shooting 44.6% from the field and 39.7% from the three-point range in 37 games.
He will turn 36 later this year but is still among the ten best players in the world.
That said, the Warriors have had a weak start to the 2023-24 season and are the 12th seed in the Western Conference with an 18-22 record in their first 40 games.
They are 3-7 over their last ten games and are in the middle of a two-game losing streak.
Following the Hawks, the Warriors will remain at home to host the Sacramento Kings on Thursday evening in San Francisco.
At the Chase Center, they have gone 11-11 in 22 games.
Curry was the seventh pick in the 2009 NBA Draft out of Davidson and is in his 15th season in the league (all with Golden State).
He has led the franchise to the NBA Finals six times and they have won four titles since the 2015 season.
