The Warriors were much more balanced, as Andrew Wiggins led the way with 27 points and superstar Steph Curry contributed 21 on 5-10 shooting from deep. Following the game, Curry revealed what was successful for them and how they were able to pull out a huge win over the top team in the conference.

With 3:10 remaining in the third quarter, the former Davidson star hit a step-back three to tie the game at 77, his 12th point of the game and 24,506th of his career. In doing so, Curry (24,515) has now passed Allen (24,505) for 27th on the all-time scoring list. The Warriors announced the historic feat on X.

And don’t forget, this past offseason, the Warriors lost a $30 million chunk of salary when they jettisoned Chris Paul strictly for luxury tax avoidance. The NBA owners wanted a system that brought big-market, big-spending teams like the Warriors to heel, and they received it.
