Victor Wembanyama beats three scoring NBA icons to reach the three-point milestone of his career

Victor Wembanyama beats three scoring NBA icons to reach the three-point milestone of his career

In the San Antonio Spurs’ 114-94 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday, Spurs center Victor Wembanyama recorded 10-10! blocks.

And yet this was perhaps the second most impressive statistical measure Wembanyama achieved in the game.

Wembanyama made four three-pointers on Saturday, giving him 201 points in his 94-game career. Amazingly, he reached 200 three-pointers faster than Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden and Hall of Fame guard Ray Allen.

As Jordan Howenstine of San Antonio’s public relations department noted, Curry, Harden and Allen are the three players with the most three-pointers in NBA history.

After averaging 1.8 three-pointers per game in 2024, Wembanyama is averaging 3.1 three-pointers per game in 2025. Curry has averaged fewer than 3.1 three-pointers per game four times in his career, while Harden has missed that mark 12 times and Allen has only hit it twice.

At the tender age of 20, Wembanyama is already rewriting the rules of what’s possible for an NBA big man.
