Tonight, dame Fortune wrote an unusual script for the sensational Stephen Curry, when his NBA-record 3-pointer streak came to a crescendo in the Golden State Warriors' heart-throbbing 118-114 coup against the sturdy Portland Trail Blazers. Like a streak of lightning that refused to light up the sky, Curry missed the hoop from the 3-point range with a conspicuous 0 for 8, his shooting star seemingly consigned to darkness after a glorious 268-game-day.
Market calendars aficionados, for Dec. 1, 2018, earmarked the genesis of Curry’s celestial streak in Detroit. Holding a celestial sceptre over the NBA, Curry inscribed his name in ray-like letters as the all-time leader by sinking his 3,500th 3-pointer not long ago. A strange night of Nov. 8, 2018, where he went 0 for 4 against Milwaukee, marked the last time he went without a sparkling of 3s in a regular-season game. This hoop virtuoso also dons the silver badge for nailing the second-longest NBA streak, echoing through the arena for 157 games.
