Stephen Curry breaks the longest longevity barrier in the NBA
steph curry have 35 years He started his 15th NBA season as if he were in his 20s. golden state warriors He is averaging 30 points per game at the start of the season, a number that makes him the first and only player at his age to be able to maintain these records through the first 10 games of the regular season. . Not LeBron James or Michael Jordanto quote other giants in the competition, achieved these numbers.
No one in history has accomplished what Curry has accomplished at the start of this campaign. And last year, he broke the previous record with 34 blocks, and it was he who surpassed the legendary record himself. Elgin Baylor with an established brand 1968. To put the San Francisco team’s point guard’s accomplishments into context, check out his stats so far. Only 10 players They managed to score over 30 points per game in the 30-year-old’s first 10 games.
The secret to Curry’s longevity lies in his unparalleled wrist touch. The star is hitting more triples per game than ever before. Average total 5.7And his success is near the high of his career. 45.2%. All of this must be added to the 4.6 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1 steal he added to his repertoire in just 32 minutes of play, his shortest time on the court since the 2019-2020 season.
Curry’s excellence alone isn’t enough for Golden State.
The problem for Curry and the Warriors is that great moments aren’t enough to keep winning. Like last year, the San Francisco team’s recipe is missing several ingredients.point guard scored more triple (62) is more field goals than the second-leading contributor to Golden State’s offense. Klay Thompson, who hit 60 field goals, uses this statistic to gauge the size of the hole.
“We definitely need to score from somewhere else and distribute plays.” Steve Kerr acknowledged after his team lost 110-116 to the Minnesota Timberwolves, their third straight loss.according to draymond greenHe should be held responsible for better organizing and distributing the game and basketball in San Francisco. chris paulthe gorgeous leader of the second unit that went from more to less at the start of the course. “As players, we have to do better.”. If we do well, they praise us, but if we do bad, we have to accept responsibility,” he said.
Curry is the only Golden State player to break the 20-point barrier this season. No Klay Thompson or Andrew Wiggins.it would be unthinkable in recent years that the usual suspects would have come close to that registry. Dario Saricon November 3, was the only one that barely reached 20 to accompany its leader’s exhibition.
“There was always a certain approach when they defended us. We’ve known for years where they’re going to pay the most attention. They’re trying to go two-on-one in the pick-and-roll. , stays close to the clay”…which will require adjustment in any case. “You can’t do the same thing and expect different results.” Curry pointed to Golden State’s play crisis.
So far, Kerr has resisted changing his plans or plans early in the season, but he’s not ruling out the possibility of introducing a rookie into the lineup now. “I like everyone playing, but if we were struggling, “We have to have players who can inspire us.” The coach also acknowledged that he knows his star players are asking him to iron out the tactical tangles that have kept his team in sixth place in the West with a 6-5 record. Amid these plans, the Madrid-born player is not yet expected to enter. Usman Garba.

I have been working as a sports journalist for about 6 years now. I currently work as an author at Sportish, which is a sports news website. I mainly cover sports news and I love writing about all aspects of the sport. I also have experience working as a broadcast journalist, so I have some great insights into how sport is reported and presented.
True, his team was left without a victory.
Over the past year, fans have become accustomed to news about records coming from overseas. Until recently, their main supplier was hockey player Alexander Ovechkin. But in the 2025/26 season, successes in the NBA were added to the achievements of our athletes in the NHL. This became possible thanks to the play of Yegor Demin, who again played a great match the day before with the Brooklyn Nets.
If the Russian does not slow down, then in the future, like Ovechkin, he has every chance to go down in the history of North American sports.
On the way to a dream
Russian representation in the NBA has always been more modest than in the NHL. And even with certain achievements, and Timofey Mozgov and Alexander Kaun, by the way, became league champions, the thought does not arise to compare the successes of Russian hockey players and basketball players overseas. How many American basketball fans now remember Sergei Monya, Yaroslav Korolev, Pavel Podkolzin?
Only Andrei Kirilenko stands out from the general background – the Russian forward played in the NBA for quite a long time. I even once went to an all-star game, where I played side by side with people like Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Yao Ming, Allen Iverson. But how many star matches did our hockey players have overseas?
With all due respect to the AK-47 game, he still does not reach the level of a North American basketball legend. Time will tell whether Yegor Demin, who powerfully broke into the NBA at the age of 19, will be able to write his name into history. But for now, the Brooklyn Nets basketball player is doing everything possible to make his dream come true.
Prolific newcomer
Kirilenko was selected by the Utah Jazz in the first round of the NBA draft as the 24th pick, and Brooklyn took Demin eighth. But these were still advances, which have so far been fully justified. The newcomer regularly appears on the court, and with the exception of the first couple of weeks of the season, in the starting lineup. At the same time, Egor is not just serving his number: in the last six matches he scored at least 14 points, in two cases he reached the 20 point mark.
In the next regular season game, the first basketball player in the league with the letter “e” on his uniform scored 23 points in the match against Golden State. Demin managed not only to repeat his best result, but also set a Brooklyn record for three-pointers among newcomers – seven accurate hits from behind the arc. True, the Russian team still lost with a score of 107:120, but in the context of the personal success of our basketball player overseas, this is a secondary issue.
Of course, to achieve sporting greatness, Egor needs to spend more than one season at this level, but at least a dozen and a half. Demin, with 275 points in the NBA, did not even reach the results of Sergei Karasev (287), although he can do this in the next game. And then new landmarks will appear: Viktor Khryapa (643), Alexey Shved (1349), Timofey Mozgov (3072) and, of course, Andrey Kirilenko (9431). When the Russian surpasses the results of the AK-47, then we can talk about an established star in the NBA. In the meantime, we can only wish our basketball player not to lower his demands on himself and avoid serious injuries.
