NBA Players with Multiple 3-Point Scoring Titles

RotoWire examines the best 3-point shooters in NBA history.

Stephen Curry stands out as the greatest shooter of all time. The 3-point line was introduced to the NBA during the 1979-80 season, with Brian Taylor becoming the league’s first 3-point champion, hitting 90 shots from beyond the arc that season. Fast forward to the 2023-24 season, and Stephen Curry leads the league with an impressive 357 three-pointers made.

Here’s a look at players who have led the league in 3-point scoring across multiple seasons:

Stephen Curry: 8 Titles

Stephen Curry has set the record by leading the league in three-point field goals a remarkable eight times. He also holds the career record for the most made 3s in NBA history, with 3,747, and leads in playoff 3-pointers with 618. In the postseason, Curry averages 4.2 made triples at an impressive 39.7% shooting. His single-game high is 13, achieved on November 7, 2016, against the New Orleans Pelicans. Widely regarded as the greatest shooter of all time, Curry is a two-time Kia MVP and four-time NBA champion, with ten All-Star appearances. He has led the league in scoring twice and steals once. During his back-to-back MVP seasons in 2015 and 2016, he averaged 26.9 points with a shooting percentage of 49.6, hitting 4.3 triples at 44.9% and 91.0% from the free-throw line.
