“He’s a master at what he does,” said the Nets’ Kevin Durant, a former
teammate.
After Curry broke Allen’s record on Tuesday, the two embraced.
“I pride myself on shooting a high percentage,” Curry said. “I pride myself
on that helping us win games. Now, I can pride myself on the longevity of
getting to that number Ray set, hopefully pushing it to a number nobody can
reach. I never wanted to call myself the greatest shooter until I got that
record. I’m comfortable saying that now.”
Curry does have off nights. In a recent loss to the San Antonio Spurs, he
shot 7 of 28 from the field and 5 of 17 from 3-point range. He showed up at
practice the next day looking particularly determined, Fraser said. Curry
concluded his workout the same way he always does: by attempting 100
3-pointers.
“He made 93 of them,” said Fraser, who feeds Curry the ball as he moves
around the perimeter.
