In his 15 years in the NBA, Stephen Curry has grown accustomed to breaking records. Such is the legacy of the “Baby Faced Assassin”. However, the Golden State Warriors star has primarily set and broken records on the offensive side of the floor. The 35-year-old has changed the game as a scorer and three-point shooter, but an underrated aspect of his game is his defense and versatility. This is exactly what he has silently displayed over the years.
The Miami Heat visited the Chase Center on their road trip in the West. Entering the game in the absence of their star forward, Jimmy Butler, the team, seemed to be staring down the barrel of defeat. However, they showed some incredible resilience, overcoming the streaking Warriors. While the Warriors faced this humiliation at home, Curry had a historic night.
Stephen Curry makes history amid Warriors’ struggle
As a true point guard, Stephen Curry has unfortunately been overlooked throughout his career. The debate on whether the 2x MVP is truly the best point guard to ever grace the court or he is simply a shooting guard playing the position of the floor general has always been prevalent. However, the Warriors star has proved every doubter wrong with his all-round prowess. This was displayed in his most recent record for rebounding.

During the blowout loss to the Miami Heat, Stephen Curry silently moved up to 10th on the all-time rebounding list of the Warriors. The 35-year-old grabbed 4 rebounds during the process to achieve this phenomenal feat. He had an underwhelming outing on the offensive side, scoring a mere 13 points. However, this record may have come as a blessing in disguise for the 4x NBA Champion.
