Curry breaks NBA record for threes made in a game
46 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. 16/26 FG, 13/17 3P.
ESPN:
Stephen Curry made an NBA-record 13 3-pointers on the way to 46 points, grabbing back the spotlight from new Golden State star Kevin Durant in the Warriors' 116-106 victory against the winless New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night.
The two-time reigning MVP hit 13 of 17 3s in his seventh career game with double digit 3-pointers and shot 16 for 26 overall. He raised his right arm and pounded his chest, then let out a "Whoo!" when he reached the record with 2:23 to go.
It was his first 40-point performance this season after he led the NBA with 13 such games last season. Fans chanted "M-V-P!"
The record comes the game after he went three-less for the first time in 157 games.
The record was set with a contested three over two defenders.
