Steph Curry Still Torching Opponents

Last night the San Antonio Spurs faced Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors for the second time on their court in the past three nights. And for the second time in the past three nights in San Antonio Steph Curry scored 40-plus points in leading the Warriors to an impressive victory.

The Golden State Warriors of 2025-26 are a team with plenty of bite and fight. They still seem to be gelling together and finding the on-court combination of players best suited to an opponent. And they can't seem to hold leads or blow out teams when leading by large margins. But the championship DNA of Steph Curry, Dramond Green, and coach Steve Kerr still runs deep in the veins of this Warriors squad.

Last night's scorching performance by Steph Curry was a reminder to the NBA of who the Warriors are and what opponents must prepare for when facing them. He's been "doing what he do" for seventeen years, and from the looks of last night's collage of Curry baskets, he ain't near done "doing what he do."

The young Will Richard, who started in place of an injured Jonathan Kuminga, is proving to be up to the challenge when on the floor with starters. He plays with a veteran awareness, can handle the ball, lets the game come to him and can score. He scored 30-points in his first career start on November 5, 2025. I like the kid and hope to see him given more minutes. 

Last night's overall team performance in support of Steph's 49-points shows they have a cast of shooters and defenders who can battle with the best the NBA has to offer. And if you question just how durable Steph Curry's basketball skills are seventeen years in, just feast your eyes on the dish he served up to 7' 4" Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs last night in San Antonio, TX.
