It's crazy how the NBA has evolved toward the 3-point shot. In the 80s, teams averaged just 2-3 made threes per game. Now the WORST shooting teams hit 10+ per game. Curry didn't just break records – he completely changed how basketball is played 🏀
Funny that if there was no Steph in NBA, we would be celebrating Harden as the greatest 3PT shooter of all time 😂
