When discussing the NBA 3-point records Steph Curry has set during his career with the Golden State Warriors, it's far easier to list the marks he doesn't own.

For instance, one might think the two-time NBA MVP owns the record for the most triples in a single regular-season game. But that's not the case, as that mark actually belongs to Curry's former Splash Brother, Klay Thompson, who hit 14 shots from distance for the Dubs in a 149-124 win over the Chicago Bulls on Oct. 29, 2018.

Curry's career best in that regard is 13, which he set as part of a 46-point effort in a 116-106 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Nov. 7, 2016.

Thompson also owns the record for the most attempts from beyond the arc with 24, which he set that same night against Chicago. The most Curry ever attempted was 23 on February 3, 2024, in a loss to the Atlanta Hawks.

Then there's the matter of 3-point shooting percentage. Curry currently ranks 12th in this category at 42.56 percent. The leader here? That would be Curry's head coach, Steve Kerr, who hit 45.40 percent of his 3-point attempts during his 15-year career as a player. It's also worth noting that Seth Curry is higher on this list as well, ranking eighth at 43.06 percent.

Those are just a few examples, and there certainly are more. For the most part, though, when asked a trivia question about 3-pointers in the regular season, the NBA Playoffs as a whole, the NBA Finals, and even the NBA All-Star Game, Steph Curry is typically a safe answer.

So, let's have a look at the major 3-point records the future Hall of Famer currently holds.

*Note: All stats listed came ahead of the Warriors' matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers on Nov. 18, 2024.
