“It’s a pretty cool experience to try to keep setting the bar when it comes to shooting for three”, Curry said. He now has 288 and the Warriors still have 24 games to play. He was 12 of 16 from behind the three-point line.
Someday you will get to tell your grandchildren that you saw Stephen Curry play basketball.
With that shot and his other 11 deep daggers, Steph broke records. Klay Thompson hit a quick layup following a timeout, but with OKC in-bounding the ball to Durant (an 89 percent free throw shooter) prior to an expected intentional foul, Golden State seemed set for its sixth loss in 59 games.
Kevin Durant scored 37 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to lead the Thunder.
The Thunder scored five quick points to start overtime, but four straight points from Curry got the Warriors to within one. Worse, Westbrook inadvertently stepped on Curry’s ankle right after the twist.
With 4:45 left in the fourth quarter, the Thunder led by nine points.
He hit a 3-pointer to cut Oklahoma City’s lead to 75-73 and then tied the score with two free throws.
