Stephen Curry went off tonight. How many times have you heard that sentence this season? In Wednesday's contest against the Washington Wizards, Curry scored 51 points, including 36 points in the first half (13/14 from the field) which is a new career-high. Â
Curry also fell one short of tying the NBA record for three-pointers in a game (12), held by Kobe Bryant and Donyell Marshall. His 11 threes tonight were more than the entire Wizards team who went 8-for-23 from downtown.Â
It's the second time in his career that the Golden State Warriors star point guard has knocked down 11 threes in a game. At some point, Steph will at least tie the mark and Marshall knows it. Â
After such a hot performance, Curry needed to cool off and Draymond Green was kind enough to help him out.Â
