Stephen Curry equals Michael Jordan in unique stat, breaks other records

Curry broke several other records with his 37-point outburst on Tuesday night. 

He became the oldest guard in history (36) with back-to-back 30-point games following his 36-point performance against the Thunder on Sunday night. He also joined Jordan and James as the third player aged 36 or more with back-to-back games of 35 points. 

Furthermore, Curry became only the second player since James in 2012 to go on an individual 10-0 run in the last four minutes to turn a two-possession deficit into a two-possession lead. 

With 3:10 left in the game, the Mavericks led 114-108 when Curry began his explosive run. He would make a two-pointer, a three, another two and a dagger three to turn the game on its head, giving the Warriors a 118-114 advantage. During that timeframe, he would also collect a key rebound and make a defensive stop while guarding Doncic.

The three-minute outburst was all the more special since Curry denied his former Splash Brother, Klay Thompson, a victory in his first game back to his old stomping grounds. It was also a reminder that no player — past or present — has been able to swing the momentum of a game with a quick barrage of shots like Curry.
