The Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has set the NBA's all-time 3-point record making his 2,974th long-range shot.
Curry, a three-time NBA champion and two-time league MVP, pounded his chest and let out a roar after hitting the 28-foot shot against the New York Nicks.
He was then immediately embraced by his teammates, coaches, father and former NBA player Dell Curry, and Allen.
Curry went into the match just two 3-pointers shy of Allen's regular-season record and the sold-out crowd remained on its feet throughout the early goings of the game in anticipation of the record being broken.
The 33-year-old Curry, who is playing in his 13th season, is widely considered the greatest shooter in the history of the league.
