Stephen Curry's dream season continues. 

The newly minted NBA MVP set a new league record Saturday night by sinking his 59th 3-pointer in a single postseason, breaking the record previously held by Reggie Miller.

Curry entered the game needing two treys to break the record, which occurred with a second-quarter shot from the top of the key with 4:32 remaining. 

It took Miller 22 games to hit 58 3-pointers back in 2000. Curry achieved the feat in his 13th playoff game this year. 

Curry broke the single-season record for made 3-pointers with 286 in the regular season, breaking his own record from 2013. 

His record-breaking 3-pointer Saturday night gave the Warriors a 49-32 lead over the Rockets in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.
