SAN FRANCISCO—Stephen Curry became the first player in National Basketball Association history to make 3,000 career three-pointers on Tuesday night in a game where the Denver Nuggets barely held off the NBA-leading Golden State Warriors, 89-86.

“I couldn’t be more proud of our guys,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. “I thought Will Barton, down the stretch, made a couple of big, big plays.” “Nikola having 18 rebounds, 22 points and making a key, key play down the stretch is why he’s a great player,” Malone said. “You need those types of plays to pull out wins like this.”

The Warriors trailed 60-36 at the half, but kept Denver down offensively while opening the third quarter on a 17-5 run to cut Denver’s lead to 65-53. They pulled within five on a Curry step-back three-pointer with 7:20 remaining in the fourth quarter before he made back-to-back three-pointers to cut the Nuggets’ lead to 84-82 with 2:08 left.
