Golden State Warriors: Top moments from the last 15 years
No. 4 – Stephen Curry’s career-high game in 2021.
Stephen Curry had just missed a vast majority of the 2019-20 NBA season and was looking to bring the Warriors back to the playoffs.
The Warriors struggled to stay above .500 for most of the season, but there were multiple highlights for them among the injuries and losses.
Curry would win the scoring title that season, averaging a career-high 32 points per game as well as outperforming his previous career-high twice in the same season.
The pinnacle of Curry’s near MVP caliber season came on January third of 2021. The Warriors were poised to play the Portland Trailblazers.
Damian Lillard had made a statement just the day before on how Stephen Curry was struggling offensively without other All-Star caliber players.
Curry clearly took offense to that as he WENT OFF.
Every other possession seemed to be a basket by Curry. He ended up scoring 62 points with four assists in a 15-point Warrior victory.
To make this night even sweeter for the Warriors, James Wiseman also posted his first career double-double in this game, posting twelve points, eleven rebounds, and two blocks.
