?F*king Got Everybody Locked In?: Following Stephen Curry?s 50-Point Masterclass, Warriors Teammate Vouches for His Leadership Skills

Stephen Curry created history on Sunday night. The baby-faced assassin dropped 50 points, eclipsing Kevin Durant’s Game 7 record of 48 points, in a 120-100 triumph against the Sacramento Kings. The Golden State Warriors displayed a spectacular drive to put the tie to bed. However, none of it would have been possible without the Dubs’ talisman, Chef Curry.

Turns out, he was not the only one with insomnolence.

At 3:45 am, Curry received a text message from teammate Draymond Green. The two talked about the game and the embarrassing loss to the Kings.
