Steph Curry torches Pacers with season-high 11 3-pointers
Steph Curry couldn't miss in the first quarter Thursday night. And he didn't miss much the rest of the way, either.
The Golden State Warriors All-Star went 6-of-6 on 3-pointers in the opening 9 minutes against the Indiana Pacers. He finished with a season-high 11 3s on 16 attempts for 42 points in the Warriors' 131-109 win.
It didn't matter how many defenders Indiana sent at him. As a Warriors announcer noted on one of his shots, "He made it from South Bend!"
That's NBA-record 346th game with at least 5 3s. By halftime he was 8-of-9 from long range with 29 points as the Warriors led 70-58.
Curry once made 7 3s in a quarter.
NBA trade grades: Pacers trade Buddy Hield, get Doug McDermott
