'He's Mr. Warrior': What three all-time greats are saying about Steph Curry's latest feat
Even Stephen Curry couldn't believe he was on the verge of surpassing a record held by the great Wilt Chamberlain.
"That's surreal to be honest," Curry said after a loss to the Atlanta Hawks last week, after which he sat 129 points behind the Warriors' all-time lead.
"[Chamberlain has] got a lot of buckets. Obviously he's a legend and remains [one] across the whole league, but obviously wearing a Warriors uniform and having been here my whole career, it's pretty crazy. So I got a couple more points to score -- hopefully some more wins in the process -- but it is just a wild thought in general.
