It’s certainly not an easy start to the season for the Golden State Warriors. They are currently even outside the top ten in the Western Conference. But victories like Tuesday’s can build them up.
The team from San Francisco was already losing at home in the third quarter 70:87, eventually going to overtime and defeating the best in the East, the Boston Celtics, 132:126, their rivals from the 2022 NBA Finals.
Young Jonathan Kuminga (17 points) and NBA debutant Trayce Jackson-Davis (10 points, 13 rebounds) had great performances. But the hero of the match was none other than Stephen Curry.
The Warriors star hit a crazy three-pointer 11.1 seconds before the end of overtime, bringing the score to 130-126 and putting everyone in the Chase Center into euphoria. A moment later, he added two free throws and the score was 132:126. Interestingly, Curry had five fouls in the third quarter. However, he finished the match.
– We showed great determination, probably the most in any match this season – said Curry in an interview with a TNT reporter. – We are learning rotation. Today’s result is the effort of the entire team. But the faith in victory we showed today is inspiring, added the 35-year-old, the author of 33 points.
It was the first direct match between these teams this season. The hosts made 20 out of 50 three-pointers and committed only 10 turnovers. The Celtics lost even fewer balls, only eight, but they scored a poor 29%. effectiveness in shots from behind the arc (17/58).
Derrick White scored 30 points and Jaylen Brown had 28 points, but Jayson Tatum had a weaker performance.
The Boston team’s star sprained his ankle at the beginning of the match, returned to the game, but was not himself – he only shot 5 out of 17 from the field.
He also missed the victory right after the siren ending the fourth quarter. This is only the sixth defeat of the Celtics in the 2023/2024 campaign, and the 13th success of the Warriors.
