Kyle Korver’s NBA record is in jeopardy.
Warriors guard Stephen Curry has made a 3-pointer in 121 consecutive games, six shy of the Hawks guard league record of 127 games.
Korver will get a chance to see Curry on the verge of breaking his mark. The Hawks host the Warriors on Feb. 22. If Curry continues his streak, a 3-pointer in that game would give him 126 straight games. He could tie the mark at the Heat on Feb. 24 and own it at the Magic on Feb. 25.
Korver set the mark from Nov. 4, 2012 through March 2, 2014. He shattered the previous record of 89 straight games with a 3-pointer held by Dana Barros.
Korver is currently ninth all-time in NBA/ABA history with 1,826 3-pointers. He already has jumped Joe Johnson and Rashard Lewis this season and is four away from tying Chauncey Billups (1,830) for eighth place. Ray Allen is the all-time leader by a wide margin with 2,973 3-pointers.
