Stephen Curry's records on Christmas Day

As the numbers above illustrate, Christmas Day has not always been kind to Stephen Curry.

Arguably the greatest shooter in NBA history, averaging just under four 3-pointers per game for his career, Curry has only knocked down 10 in his first eight games on the December holiday. He's picked it up of late, though, and has since drained 16 threes over his last 3 contests bringing his total to 26.

The other stat category where the Golden State Warriors superstar ranks among the leaderboard is career assists. His 70 career assists are 9th all-time for most on Christmas Day and if he records two more assists, he'll move into 8th, and if he can notch 7 assists, he'll pass Chris Paul for 7th.
