Stephen Curry wins NBA 3-point contest

Sunday marked Curry's seventh 3-point contest, tying him with Dale Ellis for the second-most appearances in NBA history, behind only Hodges' eight

Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors won the NBA 3-point contest for the second time in his career.

Per ESPN, Curry scored 28 points in the final round of the 3-point contest, nailing his last money ball shot (worth two points) to beat Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley’s total of 27.

Curry became the seventh player to win multiple 3-point contests — his first title came in 2015 — and the first to do so in nonconsecutive contests. Larry Bird (1986-88), Craig Hodges (1990-92), Mark Price (1993-94), Jeff Hornacek (1998, 2000 — no contest in 1999), Peja Stojakovic (2002-03) and Jason Kapono (2007-08) are the other players to win multiple All-Star 3-point titles.

Sunday marked Curry’s seventh 3-point contest, tying him with Dale Ellis for the second-most appearances in NBA history, behind only Hodges’ eight.
