35-year-old Stephen Curry is showing no signs of slowing down. He is going about his business relentlessly as the Warriors look to make the Western Conference Finals yet again. The Lakers-led by LeBron James stand in their way.
While the Lakers took home game 1, the Dubs bounced back in game 2. The big reason was Klay Thompson, scoring 30 points. Green cited him to be the reason for their win as well. Moreover, Steph Curry also had a huge role.
In fact, the Dubs superstar recorded 12 assists during the game which was a personal record. Interestingly, Green took the blame for Curry’s 12 assists being his highest ever since 2014.
Green said, “Steph finished the game with 20 and 12 assists which was his most assists in a playoffs game since 2014. I blame me for that being his most assists in a playoff game since 2014. Nonetheless, I think he was absolutely incredible.”
Additionally, Green talked about how he loved Curry’s playmaking throughout the game. Although he had only 20 points, the two-time MVP was an important presence on the court. Draymond Green also had a great performance to help his team beat the Lakers 127-100. The former Defensive Player of the Year had 11 points, 11 rebounds, and 9 assists for the night.
