On November 14, Stephen Curry moved past his father, Dell Curry, on the NBA’s all-time three-point list.
But in case you didn’t know, Dell was one of the best shooters in NBA history during his career…well until Steph breaks a few more of his records.
Here are seven things you NEED to know about Dell Curry (yes, he’s more than just Steph’s dad):
- Drafted by the Utah Jazz in the First Round of 1986 NBA Draft
- Played for 5 different teams in his NBA career (Bucks, Cavaliers, Hornets, Raptors and Jazz)
- Remains the Charlotte Hornets’ all-time leading scorer (9,839 points)
- Won the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year Award in 1994
- Made 48 percent of his three pointers in the 1998-99 season, most in the NBA
- Competed in the NBA Three-Point Contest twice
