Curry makes three-pointers for the first time after 286 games

Golden State Warriors great star known for his quality on the perimeter, Stephen Curry doesn’t hit any three shots in the game

On the night of this past Sunday, the 17th, the victory of Golden State Warriors in front of Portland Trail Blazers was overshadowed by the break in an impressive streak by the point guard Stephen Curry. The star failed to hit any shots from the perimeter (0/8), ending his record streak of 268 consecutive games with at least one three-pointer made.

The last time the point guard was blank was in November 2018, when he missed all four shots he attempted in front of the Milwaukee Bucks. Like this, Damian Lillard is the holder of the longest active streak of matches with at least one ball from the perimeter, with 101 games. Even with Curry’s uninspired night, with just seven points and eight assists, the Warriors won 118-114, with a good performance from Klay Thompson It is Andrew Wiggins.

After the match, the coach Steve Kerr took the opportunity to highlight the importance of a collective game when the stars have bad nights. “We can’t trust Steph to bail us out every night […] It was a tough night for him, but that’s what the team is supposed to be about. Everyone filling in for each other, different guys showing up every night. This is a good sign because he (Curry) has carried us enough this year. We have to offer more help”, he stated. Now, the Warriors return to the court in the early hours of this Wednesday, 20th, in front of Boston Celtics.
