Stephen Curry made 402 three-pointers during the 2015–16 NBA regular season. The total established a new NBA single-season record and helped define one of the most extraordinary offensive seasons in league history.
Curry entered the final game of the season needing to reach 400. On April 13, 2016, he made 10 three-pointers against the Memphis Grizzlies, finishing with 402. He surpassed his own previous record of 286, set during the 2014–15 season, by 116 made shots.
The achievement was part of a historic year for the Golden State Warriors. The team finished 73–9, the best regular-season record in NBA history at the time, while Curry led the league in scoring and won his second consecutive Most Valuable Player award. He also became the first unanimous MVP in NBA history. The figure counts made regular-season three-pointers, not playoff shots or attempts.
