The Golden State Warriors beat the Orlando Magic 126-119 in overtime on Saturday night at Chase Center to grab their seventh straight win after going 0-3 to start the season. Stephen Curry led the way with 41 points and made some of his biggest plays in the final minutes, with the 11-time All-NBA guard’s night drawing praise across social media.
On Saturday night, the Golden State Warriors secured their seventh consecutive win of the season, defeating the Orlando Magic 126-119 in overtime at the Chase Center. Leading the charge was Stephen Curry, who delivered an impressive 41-point performance, marking him as one of seven players to achieve the impressive feat of scoring 26,000 points, 5,000 rebounds, and 6,000 assists by the age of 38.
Curry's stats included 13-of-19 field goals, 5-of-10 three-pointers, and 10-of-10 free throws during his 36-minute outing. After trailing 78-77 in the fourth quarter, Curry's layup with 25.2 seconds remaining in regulation pushed the Warriors ahead. Orlando attempted a comeback with 2:24 left, but Curry sealed the victory with an and-one free throw with 46 seconds remaining.
Former Brooklyn Nets assistant coach Steve Jones described Curry's performance as "ridiculous," while a fan noted that "Bron wasn't doing this at 38, btw." Curry's recent stretch of outstanding play, including a 44-point game at Minnesota on October 28, has solidified his legacy as an NBA legend. The Warriors will aim to extend their winning streak to eight games on Monday night against the New Orleans Pelicans at the Chase Center.
