Stephen Curry reaches 25,000 career points

March 9, 2025 by Hoops Hype

Stephen Curry became the 26th player in NBA history to score 25,000 career points, reaching the milestone during the third quarter of the Golden State Warriors’ 115-110 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Saturday night . “BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!” Curry yelled while running through the hallway to the locker room after a quick return to the court postgame. And that was a tribute to teammate Draymond Green, who loves to yell “boom” after making a 3-pointer. Green, who hit the go-ahead 3 with 35 seconds left, secured the game ball for Curry. “He’s going to keep it for me. I heard he has a little bit of KD’s memorabilia,” Curry said about former teammate Kevin Durant.

Stephen Curry does not belong in the GOAT convo and LeBron James does not belong in the 2024-25 MVP convo.
We can appreciate greatness without going overboard. pic.x.com/m0YQlMMpEm – 4:34 AM

Stephen Curry passed Reggie Theus and John Lucas in steals to become No. 31 on the all-time list.
Also: LeBron James moved ahead of Roy Hibbert in blocks for No. 71 in NBA history and Luka Doncic passed Pete Maravich in assists for No. 166. – 2:50 AM

Steph Curry looks invigorated lately. It’s about his health, the time of the season, their place in the standings and the trade: “All of it.”
“Jimmy obviously helps. He helps a lot.” pic.x.com/A0SE6ufNKy – 11:35 PM

Jordi Fernandez on the Nets’ defense on Steph Curry during his 40-point night:
“That’s why he’s the best shooter ever and one of the best players in the world… I still think our guys did a great job. That’s how it looks when you play against a player like this.” pic.x.com/dva0d9S7bR – 10:32 PM

Warriors complete a 4-1 road trip. They’ve won eight straight with Jimmy Butler in the lineup, 10-1 overall. Butler was great: 25 points, 10/10 on FTs, three steals, +17. Steph Curry finished dominant road trip with 40 points on 12/20 FG. Their next seven are at home. – 10:12 PM

The Nets devised a gameplan entirely focused on taking Steph Curry out of the game. He has 31 points on 11/17 from the field and 6/10 from three with five minutes remaining.
That’s what the great ones do. – 9:53 PM

Keon Johnson got the starting nod and is being tasked with face-guarding Steph Curry.
Easier said than done, but he’s held up well thus far. – 7:53 PM

More on this storyline

FYI, Stokes, the top player in the class of 2026, plays for Notre Dame HS in SoCal. P’s hoops star son, Mercy, also played at ND. Alabama, Arizona State, Auburn, Kansas, and others have also offered scholarships. “Look at Stephen Curry (Davidson), look at Damian Lillard (Weber State), you wanna go somewhere you can play, and people are gonna see you, the NBA is gonna find you, and New Orleans is a great place, it’s a great city.” “We got a great alumni, we got a coach, and so you know what, sky’s the limit for us.” -via TMZ.com / March 9, 2025
Curry, who turns 37 next Friday, surpassed 25,000 with a 3-pointer at 8:32 of the third quarter, then received a warm ovation when he was recognized during a timeout with 5:42 to go. He finished with 32 points — pushing his total to 25,017 — on 8-for-22 shooting and converted all 12 of his free throws as the Warriors moved to 11-1 with Jimmy Butler in the lineup this season. Curry, who hit the mark in his 1,011th game, said he wasn’t keeping track of his totals. “It was a surprise, actually. I knew I was coming up on it but I didn’t think about it until I heard it in game,” he said. “There’s a list, [broadcaster] Tim Roye told me after the game only 10 guys I think or now 10 guys that have done it with one franchise, so that’s pretty special. And the names that are on that list are synonymous with basketball history, so that’s pretty cool.” -via ESPN / March 9, 2025
“I think he’s dead on because Steph is the most unique superstar of all time,” Kerr said of O’Neal’s comments to Mark Willard and Dan Dibley. “He broke barriers, he changed the game. And what he does, really to this day, is unique to himself. I just can’t even imagine anybody doing the stuff he does. “It’s different; the way he impacts the game is different. When you have these conversations about ‘Who’s the greatest ever?’ you automatically go to these genetic marvels; you know, LeBron and Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain and whoever else. Steph doesn’t fit that normal mold. I love that Shaq is bringing that up because, from a skills standpoint, it’s not even close. [Curry] is the greatest ever from a skills standpoint.” -via NBC Sports Bay Area / March 7, 2025
