Arguably the greatest shooter in NBA history was scorching hot from behind the arc on Sunday night.
Golden State Warriors All-Star guard Stephen Curry went 9-of-17 from 3-point range in Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers, establishing a new Finals record for both makes and attempts.
The previous record belonged to Boston Celtics marksman Ray Allen, who connected on eight long-range bombs against the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 2 of the 2010 Finals.

Curry finished with a game-high 33 points on 26 shots across 38 minutes, adding seven rebounds, eight dimes, and a steal as Golden State blew out Cleveland by 19 points, 122-103.
The defending champion Warriors now hold a 2-0 series lead, with Game 3 set for Wednesday night at Quicken Loans Arena.
