In a dazzling display of skill and precision, Steph Curry lit up the court against the Orlando Magic, scoring an impressive 56 points and sinking 12 three-pointers, leading the Golden State Warriors to a commanding victory. Curry’s remarkable performance, which included shooting 64% from the field, marked his ninth game scoring over 50 points since turning 30, a league record that highlights his enduring talent.

Teammate Jimmy Butler shared his thoughts on Curry’s performance, expressing both admiration and relief at being on the same side. “It’s fun to watch, especially since it’s a huge reason we won,” Butler remarked. “When he gets hot, it’s a big energy boost for everyone in the locker room.” Butler acknowledged the expectation surrounding Curry’s scoring feats, noting, “It’s kind of weirdly expected now. When he ends with just 40, you think, ‘Wow, that’s it?’”

Curry’s halftime performance, including a stunning halfcourt shot, shifted the momentum for the Warriors. “We came into halftime knowing we were going to win,” Butler stated, underscoring the confidence the team felt. The Warriors’ ability to rally around Curry’s offensive prowess has proven invaluable, fostering a collective spirit among teammates to strive for greatness on both ends of the floor.

Butler, who has carried multiple franchises in his career, emphasized the importance of having a player like Curry on the team. “It’s great to have someone who will do anything to win,” he said, highlighting the synergy in the locker room where every player understands and embraces their role.

As the Warriors continue their season, Curry’s ability to electrify the crowd has not gone unnoticed, with Butler remarking on how opposing arenas often feel like home turf for the Warriors due to their widespread fan support. With Curry leading the charge, the Warriors are not just winning games; they are inspiring confidence and camaraderie that could pave the way for a successful season ahead.
