Curry, 33, has outdone some of his greatest personal achievements this season.
The veteran is putting up a career-high 31.4 points and 5.5 rebounds in addition to 5.8 assists and 1.2 swipes per contest this season. He’s also shooting a whopping 48.7 percent from the field and 42.7 percent from downtown this season.
The sharpshooter recently surpassed Washington Wizards All-Star Bradley Beal as the league’s leading scorer. Curry led the league in scoring during the 2015-16 campaign.
Of course, the Warriors are a completely different team than they were a few years ago. The Warriors hold an unimpressive 33-32 record and are fighting for a shot to compete in the playoffs.
Still, opponents are petrified of Curry. The two-time MVP has been on a tear in recent weeks as he tries to will the Warriors into the postseason.
