SAN FRANCISCO — Steph Curry’s sprained right thumb was so bad, he went through Wednesday’s light practice while only using his left hand.
Yet one night later, he did something he’d never done in an NBA game before: hit eight 3-pointers without missing any.
Before Thursday night’s blowout win over Philadelphia, Curry’s personal perfection record was 6-for-6 from behind the arc, which he’d done twice. The all-time record for a perfect 3-point night is 9-for-9 held by three players.
