The Greatest Shooter of All Time

Tracy McGrady, another NBA legend, admitted that he wasn’t able to witness Curry’s performance live, but was not surprised when he saw the highlights. McGrady stated, “He’s the greatest shooter we’ve ever seen. Him shooting the ball and making the shots that he did, it doesn’t surprise me. That’s what he does.”

Curry’s exceptional display on the court helped secure the Americans their fourth consecutive gold medal in his first Olympic Games.

Record-Breaking Potential

As if his Olympic performance wasn’t enough, Curry is on track to become the first NBA player in history to make 4,000 3-pointers. With 3,747 3-pointers under his belt, he is in a promising position to surpass Ray Allen, who currently holds second place by over 1,000 3-pointers.
