The Golden State Warriors had a tough night away from home as they lost to the Sixers at the Wells Fargo Center. Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole led the scoring charts for the Warriors, but it wasn’t enough to register their 22nd win of the season. Apart from a win, Stephen Curry was chasing a big record – Ray Allen’s 3-point record.
Curry closed in on Allen’s record and needed nine from outside of the arc to match his record. However, Curry went a quiet 3 of 14 from beyond the arc in the Warriors 93-102 loss against the Philadelphia side.
Many had thought that Curry would be able to achieve the feat on the road. However, Curry preferred to break the record before the home crowd.

“I feel like it will be special no matter what because I’ll make it special and it will be an amazing experience for me and my teammates,” Curry said.
However, the Warriors now have four straight games on the road and there’s a good chance of Curry breaking the record away from home. Not surprisingly, the Warriors fans were furious as Curry missed breaking the record versus the Sixers.
