Curry started another special night with a pregame show for the ages, then went out and put on an ageless performance against Orlando.
ORLANDO, Florida — Stephen Curry scored a season-high 56 points, making 12 3-pointers and outscoring Orlando by himself in the third quarter of another astounding performance, leading the Golden State Warriors to a 121-115 victory over the Magic on Thursday night.
The Golden State Warriors may acquire an experienced center in the offseason who started his career with the Philadelphia 76ers.
This was Curry’s 14th 50+ point game, tying him with Hall of Famer Rick Barry for second all-time in franchise history (Wilt Chamberlain had a ridiculous 105 of them). Curry’s highlight reel shot of the night was the three-quarter-court shot to beat the halftime buzzer.
Golden State has won 10 of their last 12 games with Butler and besides the former Miami Heat star thriving, Curry has been stellar as in the 121-119 win over the Brooklyn Nets, he scored 40 points. Green would say via The Athletic that Curry “was right” that the team before couldn't come back, but with Butler, they are a different team.
