“Ah man, I was about to get some birthday shots or something!”: Warriors’ Stephen Curry wanted to go and celebrate 47 on his 34th, tried to get out of the post-game conference early
Warriors’ Stephen Curry couldn’t wait to get out of the post-game presser, wanted to go celebrate his 34th
The Golden State Warriors were in a party mood tonight, and they weren’t going to let the Washington Wizards poop on it. Stephen Curry turned 34 tonight, so it was a special day as it is. To make it even better, Draymond Green returned back to action and played his first game in over two months.
Stephen Curry continued his recent hot streak on his birthdays. Last year, Steph dropped 32 over the Utah Jazz on his birthday to secure the Dubs a win. Tonight, he went off for a 47-piece to lead the Dubs over the Wizards. Steph dropped 47, shooting 16/25 from the field, 7/14 from the deep, along with 6 assists, and 6 rebounds. Draymond Green made his return, recording a game-high +24 in the 20 minutes he played off the bench. Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole dropped 20 points each.

Well, he deserves them. After not giving up during that rough 5-game patch, the Warriors have bounced back and recorded 4 straight wins. With DG back, it’s only going to get better from here on out.
