Stephen Curry Knocks Down 63 Three-Pointers This Season

Stephen Curry Continues to Shine with Age: Records 63rd 40-Point Game. Stephen Curry, hailing from Akron, Ohio, is proving that age is just a number as he continues to dominate the basketball court. At 35 years old, Curry showcased his exceptional skills by scoring 41 points in a tҺrilling 122-114 victory for the Golden State Warriors against their regional rivals, the Sacramento Kings.

This remarkable performance marked Curry’s 63rd career game with 40 or more points in the National Basketball Association (NBA), with 33 of those games occurring after he turned 30. The only player with more than 33 40-point games after turning 30 is the legendary Michael Jordan from Brooklyn, New York, who achieved 44 such games during his tenure with the Chicago Bulls and Washingtоn Wizards. Curry’s 63 40-point games currently rank as the 14th most in NBA history, with Wilt Chamberlain holding the top spot with an astonishing 271.

It’s worth noting that James Harden’s status as an active player is currently in question due to his holdout with the 76ers. Harden’s discontentment largely stems from his strained relationship with Daryl Morey, the President of Basketball Operations for the 76ers. Rumors have circulated about a potential trade for Harden, with the Los Angeles Clippers showing interest, although talks have subsided in recent days.
