Klay Thompson’s latest feat highlights Stephen Curry’s ridiculous NBA record

Klay Thompson has been on a heater of late, as he has made at least seven 3-pointers in three of the last five Miami Heat games.

As impressive as it is that Thompson now has 56 games in which he has drained at least seven shots from behind the arc, that number pales in comparison to his former teammate and Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry’s NBA record of 155 such games.

That was highlighted by a post made by ESPN Insights following Thompson and the Heat’s 114-108 win on Sunday over the Sacramento Kings at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, Calif.

Klay Thompson hit 7 3-pt FG for the 3rd time in his last 5 games He had 3 such games over the past 2 seasons combined. Thompson has the 2nd-most games with 7 3s (56) behind former Splash Bro Stephen Curry (155).

Curry is widely regarded as the greatest shooter in the history of the league, and he continues to add to his incredible resume.

This November alone, Curry is having quite a run himself. Over the first four Warriors games this month, the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player has averaged 32.3 points, while shooting 53.6% from the field and 47.6% from deep. He sank at least nine 3-pointers in three of those contests as well.

It remains to be seen how long Curry and Thompson can sustain their current hot form, but the aging ex-teammates have certainly made it fun to watch them operate for their respective teams with their vintage shooting touch lately.
