Leonard and George bowed the… 50. Curry
The Clippers withstood Hurricane Steph Curry (50 points) and, with forwards Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, beat the Warriors 134-126 for their 4th straight win.
The Clippers seem to be rolling and better fitting Russell Westbrook into their ensemble. The latest proof of this came against the – disappointing away – Warriors as LA went 134-126 for their 4th straight win. ]
Kawhi Leonard (30 points) and Paul George (24 points) were the top scorers on a night the Clippers had six players in double digits overall. Which turned out to be necessary to bend the… out of joint Steph Curry who finished the game with 50 points at 8/14 3-pointers and would beat almost everyone alone.
In fact, for nearly three periods, Curry looked like he would single-handedly beat the Clippers after scoring 21 points in the third period to give Golden State a 66-70 lead early in the second half. But a 14-0 run put the Clippers 80-70 ahead, with LA holding on to a slight lead and nailing to victory from there.
