The Golden State Warriors moved to 5th on the Western Conference standings on Tuesday night. They secured a high-scoring win thanks to Stephen Curry’s heroics against the Memphis Grizzlies. Over the past few weeks, Curry had been performing admirably, but fans wanted more input from their star. This is exactly what he gave them at the FedExForum.

Nothing compares to the Stephen Curry display in the NBA today. The Grizzlies didn’t like that performance on Tuesday, but the Warriors did. They won because of Curry, who made 12 3-pointers en route to his 52 points. That marks Curry’s 15th career 50-point performance and his second of the season. Fans were left ecstatic with the Warriors star.

After the Jimmy Butler trade, the 44-31 Warriors have now won 17 of their last 22 games and are one game ahead of the sixth-seeded Grizzlies (and just one game clear of the Timberwolves and Clippers, who rank seven and eight, respectively). The Warriors got 27 points from their newest star, Jimmy Butler. In addition, with 36 points, Ja Morant led the Grizzlies but was not enough against Curry’s top-notch performance.

At Memphis’ FedEx Forum, Curry, the NBA’s all-time three-point shooting leader, once again showed off his long-range ability by making 12 of 20 shots from beyond the arc. It’s important to note that, Curry is 37 years old and is still going strong in a league full of talented youngsters.

The Grizzlies have dropped seven of eight games and four straight, and interim coach Tuomas Iisalo has yet to secure a victory. Also, they are the underperforming team in a conference full of talented teams, and it appears increasingly likely that the Grizzlies will return to the play-in round.

Fans left ecstatic with Stephen Curry’s monstrous outing against the Grizzlies

The DubNation were longing for their star Stephen Curry to drop an all-timer performance against one of their top rivals in the West, the Memphis Grizzlies. It’s safe to say that Curry heard the fans’ calling and dropped a whopping 52 points on the Grizzlies in the presence of their star man Ja Morant. This led to immense reactions from fans on social media.

Many Warriors fans also took to various social media apps to put forward their views and thoughts on their starman’s performance.

Ni**a did this all while getting mugged. Bro is crazy.

Check out some of the reactions below:

Steve Kerr, the coach of the Warriors, showered Curry with plaudits for his magnificent performance, which has put Golden State squarely in the running for the playoffs. Kerr remarked after the game that ‘it’s incredible to watch Steph at work.’

Stephen Curry made NBA history in the game against the Grizzlies

In addition to his remarkable 12-of-20 three-point shooting and 52 points, Stephen Curry also contributed 10 rebounds, 8 assists, and 5 steals, putting him in elite company. It was Curry’s performance that created NBA history. Per the official NBA X handle, Curry becomes the first player in NBA history to record 50+ PTS, 10+ 3PM, & 5+ STL in a single game.

In addition, Curry joined Rick Barry and Anthony Davis as the only other players to ever record at least 50 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and 5 steals in a single game. Also, with his 15th career 50-point performance, Curry surpassed LeBron James (14) on the all-time list and tied Damian Lillard for sixth place in NBA history.

So Curry did break multiple records against the Grizzlies on Tuesday. All said and done, the star man will be more focused on his side’s finish to the season rather than the personal milestones. All eyes will now drift onto Curry and Co. going forward into the final weeks of the regular NBA season.
