Stephen Curry is widely regarded as the best shooter in NBA history and one of the best point guards in the game. Playing with the Golden State Warriors, Curry has transformed the game of basketball with his pathbreaking style of play.

Curry has been known to put on some ludicrous displays of offensive prowess. While his halfcourt heaves are more normalized now, when Stephen Curry is hot, he is in the realm of unguardable players in the league.

An absolute nightmare for opposition defenses, Curry keeps moving without the ball and the Warriors' system is tailored to allow facilitation of passing and a dynamic offense.

A nifty and flashy passer, Curry does lend himself to turnovers with an average of 3.1 per game for his career. However, considering his offensive upside, it is worth it.

Keeping his offensive brilliance in mind, we take a look at the only three times Stephen Curry has scored 40 points with zero turnovers.
