Made 3-pointers

Stephen Curry (55), Kemba Walker (38), J.J. Redick (33)

I suppose having eight of nine games with more than five 3-pointers will get you this title. He’s so much farther ahead than Walker, Curry could miss an entire week, and he’d still be ahead. It’s only been nine games! Curry is just on another level right now.

Redick’s 33 makes are impressive as well because although he’s always been a 3-point specialist, he’s attempting a career high this season. Unfortunately for the 76ers, the only other player average more than two 3-pointers a game so far is Robert Covington, which means they’re going to need Redick to keep shooting whenever he can.
