Curry Scores 40 Points for the Second Time This Season
The performance marked Curry’s second game above the 40-point threshold this season and the 77th of his career. It was his 16th 40-point outing since turning 35 years old, a milestone that surpasses the career marks of Michael Jordan and LeBron James at the same age stage.
Franz Wagner led the Magic with 30 points as Orlando connected on 18 three-pointers. The visitors failed to score during the final two minutes of overtime, sliding to their seventh loss of the season.
Curry Assesses the Current Run
“I am really proud of what we are doing and how I am playing, given the injuries and various things that happened,” Curry said. “Just the idea of still being able to play at a certain level is a push.”
Curry logged 36 minutes of playing time against Orlando, his highest workload of the campaign. He is averaging 29.9 points per game in 28.7 minutes of action, shooting 44 percent from three-point range and over 98 percent from the foul line.
Streak Context for Golden State
The seven-game run matches the longest winning streak Golden State has put together since January 2026 during the previous campaign, a stretch that preceded an injury to Jimmy Butler which altered the team’s postseason trajectory.
