Los Angeles Clippers star James Harden passed Ray Allen to move into second place all-time in three-pointers made on Sunday. Coming into the game against the Utah Jazz, Harden needed just one three to break the tie and cement himself at second place on the all-time list. The inevitable shot came in the first quarter with one of his signature pull-up threes on the right wing.
Harden now has 2,975 threes and counting, with the former MVP seemingly eager to continue his legendary NBA career. The majority of his three-point makes came during his storied tenure with the Houston Rockets from 2012-2021 in which he won the 2019 MVP award.

While he may not get much credit for it, Harden is one of the most prolific scorers in the history of the NBA, shattering multiple scoring-related records throughout his career.
The only player ahead of him on the three-point list is Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, who is still widening the gap.
Regardless of where he finishes on the all-time list, Harden is undoubtably one of the most influential players of all time.
