On Sunday night, the Golden State Warriors are hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California.  

During the game, two-time MVP Steph Curry made NBA history as he moved up on the all-time assists list. 

Curry came into the night tied with Hall of Famer Larry Bird for 47th with 5,695 assists.

Therefore, he only needed one assist to move ahead of Bird for sole possession of 47th.

In addition, Curry is closing in on passing Dwyane Wade (5,701) for 46th.

While he is widely seen as the greatest shooter in NBA history, Curry is also a talented passer who has averaged 6.5 assists per contest for his career.
