The Golden State Warriors Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green made history once again with their Game 4 win.

The trio led the team to a close 126-125 win against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday at the Chase Center. The trio won their 94th win together, the third most all-time in the history of the NBA.

The other trios who have won more are those of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson and Michael Cooper (110) of the Los Angeles Lakers, and Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili (126) of the San Antonio Spurs.

The difference between the Warriors trio and that of the Spurs and the Lakers is that the others had won five championships each while the Warriors have only had four.

Will the team win their 5th this season? That remains to be seen.

They are only two victories away from winning the first round of their playoff series with the Kings.

If all goes well for the team in the coming weeks, the trio could come even closer to the record set by Abdul-Jabbar, Johnson, and Cooper and maybe even overtake that of the Spurs trio.

But the new CBA is making it harder to create teams and eras like that of the Big Threes may be coming to an end.

Steve Kerr of the Warriors had also noted that the Big Three may be nearing its end, especially with Green and Curry already in their mid to late 30s.
