Steph Curry reached yet another historic scoring milestone on Friday as his Golden State Warriors maintained their on-court improvement since the NBA’s trade deadline earlier this month. Curry scored 20 points in the Warriors’ 132-108 win over the Sacramento Kings, in doing so becoming the 21st player in NBA history – and first Golden State player – to score 20 or more points in 700 games. When put to him, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr couldn’t hide his amazement at the achievement, saying: “That’s pretty impressive.” Curry reached 20 points by going 7-for-13 on his field goal attempts, including hitting four three points and both of his two attempts from the free-throw line. Moses Moody and Buddy Hield top-scored for the Warriors with 22 points, while second-year guard Brandin Podziemski added 21 points. Friday’s victory continued Golden State’s improvement after the trade deadline and their blockbuster acquisition of Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat.
