Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors matched up against the Houston Rockets tonight and emerged victorious. Coming into the game with a 5-game win streak, the Dubs hoped to extend it to six, and they did just that. After a long 17-game gap, we witnessed a spectacle we’d all been waiting for. Stephen Curry decided to shake off the rust and went 7/14 from the deep. This was the first time since the December 23 matchup against Ja Morant and the Grizzlies that Steph made 7 or more triples.
Steph had just 16 points till the 5-minute mark of the 3rd quarter, but then Kevin Porter Jr. made the biggest mistake of the night. He came up to Curry and trash-talked him. Curry replied in the way he knows best, and scored 24 points in the remaining 17 minutes of the game. Curry finished the night with 40 points, 9 assists, 5 rebounds, a steal, and a block.

After the game, everyone expected to get a big reaction from Steph about the trash Kevin Porter Jr. talked. However, there was none of that. Instead, Steph called it ‘fun stuff’ and said he doesn’t play much into it.
Stephen Curry on the trash talk from Kevin Porter Jr.:
“Fun stuff like that happens in the game. I take it all as entertainment and sometimes you need a little boost. I never really play into it much. Obviously, I didn’t say anything back so just hoop and have fun with it.”

Ayesha Curry saw the post-game interview and decided to talk up her beloved.
He’s like this in real life too. Literally rolls with what comes his way and always sees the silver linings. Mr.Brightside. My favorite person in the universe. https://t.co/64zMyTJWdc

It is Steph’s nature that makes him quite different from the other superstars all around the world. He had a sense of calmness about him, which is unnerving for the opponents.
