The Golden State Warriors had to rely on 36-year-old Draymond Green, 39-year-old Al Horford and a hobbled 38-year-old Steph Curry. Down the stretch, the trio showed their playoff pedigree to shock the Los Angeles Clippers.
Curry scored 35 points, 28 of them in the second half, Horford sank three three-pointers in the 4th quarter and Green had two game-sealing steals while stifling Kawhi Leonard in a stunning 126-121 win.
Steph Curry led Golden State Warriors in another big game
Playing in only his fifth game since Jan. 30 after a serious knee injury, Curry started slow, scoring only seven points before halftime and looking frustrated with the referees. He briefly left for the locker room after a collision with John Collins.
But beginning in the third quarter, Curry got hot and the Clippers were scrambling. The Warriors trailed by 10 points when Curry scored eight points on three straight possessions, including a four-point play. He followed that up with two straight deep three-pointers and finished with 16 points in the quarter.
