Wilt Chamberlain versus Steph Curry: who is the best of all time?
Wilt Chamberlain versus Steph Curry: who is the best of all time?
NBA superstar Steph Curry passed Wilt Chamberlain’s franchise record for most field goals as the Golden State Warriors. Curry starred for the Warriors – the reigning NBA champions after they defeated the Boston Celtics in six games – as they defeated the Thunder 128-120 on Monday night to secure a third successive win.
Golden State got out to an exceptionally fast start, jumping out to a 38–20 lead in the first quarter while shooting 62.5%. From that point on, the Warriors comfortably outplayed their opponents, led by Curry’s 38 points, 12 assists, and 8 rebounds.
Curry, who is renowned for his almost unbelievable long jump shot, made eight of his fourteen three-point tries. His teammate and fellow “Splash Brother,” Klay Thompson, led the Warriors to victory with 28 points and six three-pointers.
Curry made 12 of his 20 attempts from the field during his outstanding effort against the Thunder, surpassing the legendary Chamberlain for the most field goals in Warriors history. In addition to leading the team in points, assists, steals, and three-pointers made, the 34-year-old leads the NBA all-time in these categories.

The Warriors needed the victory since it marked the beginning of their three-game road trip, which will include trips to Minnesota and Denver later this week. With a 26–24 record, Golden State is ranked fifth in the Western Conference.
