Stephen Curry is well-known for his scoring and shooting prowess, but his playmaking abilities frequently go unnoticed. With 12 assists in Game 2, he surpassed Dwyane Wade to move up to 24th all-time in postseason assists (882 to date), showcasing his passing prowess. The Warriors’ defense, which limited Anthony Davis to only 11 points and seven rebounds following his outstanding performance in Game 1, was also a major contributing element to the victory. Even though LeBron James managed to score 23 points, it wasn’t enough to stop the Warriors’ offensive barrage.

Off the court, the game was attended by several celebrities, including Tom Holland and Zendaya, who are known to be fans of the NBA and specifically of Steph Curry. They were seen sitting courtside alongside other famous faces like Danny Devito, Alex Rodriguez and Gary Payton Sr.
