Steph Curry scores on a tough floater in Game 7 of the NBA Playoffs after a crazy offensive sequence for the Warriors as Golden State tries to close out the series against the Sacramento Kings.
Steph Curry is no stranger to making NBA history, and he did so again in the Warriors' blowout Game 7 win over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday at Golden 1 Center.
The Golden State superstar became the first NBA player to score 50 or more points in a Game 7, erupting for 50 points in the Warriors' 120-100 victory that clinched the opening-round playoff series against their Northern California counterparts.
At 35 years old, Curry's record comes in arguably the best Game 7 offensive performance of all time. Curry's 50 points came on 20-of-38 shooting from the field with seven 3-pointers.
Curry surpassed former teammate and Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant to claim the record, who scored 48 points against the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2021 Eastern Conference semifinals.
Also on the list are Sam Jones (47, 1963) Dominique Wilkins (47, 1988), Kevin Johnson (46, 1995), Luka Dončić (46, 2021) and LeBron James (45, 2008, 2018).
