3. Curry is one of the NBA’s best shooters

Fans know Seth Curry is one of the best shooters in the world. That is why his start to the season was so surprising. Through his first 13 games, Curry was only shooting 35.3 percent from downtown. A lot of factors played into it. He was adjusting to new teammates. Curry also missed time in the preseason with injuries.

The 29-year-old is back on track now. He had one of the best games of his career in Miami on Friday night. Curry finished with 37 points and eight 3-pointers made. He was 13 of 15 from the field in his 36 minutes of action. Curry could not miss. Here is a look at his highlight reel from the game.

Seth Curry has been fantastic in the month of February. He has played ten games. Over that time, Curry is averaging 18.5 points and 3.9 3-pointers made per game while shooting 59.1 percent from downtown.

The Mavericks guard has now passed Hubert Davis for second in all-time 3-point percentage. Only Steve Kerr is ahead of Curry.

Seth Curry is absolutely on fire right now. Expect Coach Carlisle to continue riding the hot hand. Fans know that is difficult to slow Curry down when he gets rolling.
