As the NBA regular season draws to a close, Stephen Curry might be just finding his best shooting stroke.


The Golden State Warriors guard and owner of the NBA single-season 3-point record connected on 77 straight 3s in Tuesday's practice.

Curry rotated around the perimeter, taking 10 shots from several spots.


Curry told ESPN the 77 represents the most he's ever made in a row. Out of 100 shots taken during the session, he made 94.


Teammate Klay Thompson, who is second in the NBA with 234 made 3s, told ESPN he couldn't believe Curry had made 77 straight and that his own record streak is 36.


Curry, a leading candidate for league MVP, surpassed his own record for 3-pointers made in a season. With only Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Denver Nuggets remaining, Curry has 284 3s -- a staggering 3.6 per game -- this season.


ESPN.com senior writer Tom Friend contributed to this report.

Curry drops 41 tonight, and doesn't even play the 4th quarter.

9 3's.

The guy is unreal.

Stephen Curry scored 41 points in three quarters, and the Warriors made a franchise-record 22 3-pointers (in 38 attempts) during their highest-scoring game of the season, a 135-116 rout of the Phoenix Suns on Friday night.
Golden State fell one shy of the NBA record for 3s set by Orlando on March 9, 2009, and matched by Houston, against the Warriors, on Feb. 5, 2013. The offensive deluge came three days after Golden State set the league record at 16-0 by beating the Los Angeles Lakers.
"We have an edge," said Curry, the reigning NBA MVP. "We love the feeling of winning and our confidence is high right now. That's the only thing that motivates us."

</aside>The 3-point record could well have fallen had Curry not sat out the fourth quarter. He made a season-high nine of his 16 tries from long range in his 14th career 40-point game, five this season.
