ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Stephen Curry has hit a 3-pointer for the 128th consecutive game, setting an NBA record.

The reigning league MVP made a 26-foot jumper from the left wing with 5:45 remaining in the opening quarter of Golden State’s game against the Orlando Magic on Thursday night.

Atlanta’s Kyle Korver held the previous mark of 127, which Curry tied at Miami on Wednesday.

Curry entered Thursday night with 266 3s and is on pace to break the single-season mark he set last year.
