Steph Curry decided to have a night out on Thursday.
The star guard scored 30 points and was a perfect 8-8 on three-pointers to help lead the Golden State Warriors to a 139-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins and Dennis Schroder all contributed 15 points in the win while Jonathan Kuminga had 20 off the bench. However, the star of the day was Curry and his performance was even new by his standards.
His three consecutive home run attempts were the best of his career, on TNT radio. He was the closest to the all-time record of three in a row, which is held by Jalen Brunson, Ben Gordon and Latrell Spreewell, per Derek Bodner of PHLY Sports.
He left the game early due to a slump but still managed a double-double with 10 assists. He also finished with six rebounds, a steal and was 11-of-15 from shooting.

The Warriors improved to 17-16 with the win while Philadelphia fell to 13-19 with the loss.
Even though Curry's numbers are down a bit this season, he's still the cornerstone of the franchise and nights like Thursday show just how powerful he can be.
He will look to build on that feat on Saturday when the Warriors host the Memphis Grizzlies.
