USA Today Sports

Someone forgot to inform the Charlotte Hornets ahead of their game Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors that reigning back-to-back NBA Most Valuable Player Stephen Curry is quite the marksman from behind the arc.

The Chef lit up the Hornets with six buckets from the perimeter in the first quarter alone, tying Rashard Lewis for 12th on the all-time 3-pointers made list.

When he knocked down his seventh later on, Curry took sole possession of 12th place as he continued his ascension towards career leader Ray Allen.
