We’re one step away from all-time history!
Coming into Sunday’s contest between the Los Angeles Clippers and Utah Jazz, Clippers shooting guard James Harden only needed to hit one three-point shot to place himself into No. 2 all-time for the most being made in NBA history. He pulled that off in the first quarter.
Placed at the right wing, Harden knocked down a pull-up three-pointer that put him at 2,974 career three-point shots made, which officially took him out of a tie that he had for second place with the legendary Ray Allen.

Ahead of Harden on the list is Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry, who is way ahead of Harden with a tally of 3,782 entering Sunday. That number is 800+ over Harden.
With this being the case, it’s projected that Harden will stay at the No. 2 position until his retirement.

Damn, it’s crazy how fast time flies.
I remember back in the day when James Harden was a rookie in the league, I remember those days where he was ballin’ out with a young Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook in Oklahoma City. Now my man is out here about to be No. 1 all-time in three-pointers and on the verge of retirement.
I guess that explains why I went from eating pizza care free to all of a sudden having to watch my blood pressure … life comes at ya ass fast.
