Washington (AFP) - Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry set an NBA record with his first three-pointer of the night against the Magic in Orlando -- and he was just getting warmed up.

Curry's three-pointer with 5:42 remaining in the first quarter marked his 128th straight regular-season game with at least one basket from beyond the arc, breaking the record he shared with Kyle Korver.
