Father time has not yet caught up Warriors Superstar Steph CurryWell, mostly.

Curry’s 21 points in Golden State’s amazing 116-109 win over Oklahoma City Thunder Wednesday night helped him jump Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer Ray Allen on NBA’s scoring list at any time. His immediate reaction?

“Do you see the gray hair?” Curry joked with Espn’s Jorge Sedano after the game. “It just means you are blessed to continue playing this game at a high level. I thank God every day that this is a space I have been able to live II 16 years. The names I passed (Allen Iverson) A a few weeks ago, Ray today – guys I grew up watching in my generation that inspires me to love the game as I do.

“So it’s definitely special. Shout to Ray.”

With Wednesday’s performance, Curry has reached 24,515 points throughout his 16-season NBA career and passes Allen’s 24,505. He is now only 300 away from Patrick Ewing and less than 700 from Jerry West in 25 ..

Los Angeles Lakers Megastar LeBron James leads the list of 41,474 points.

This season, Curry, who turns 37 on March 14, is an average 31.7 minutes through 38 games.

Maybe his hair is the only indication that his age catches up with him.
