Warriors coach Steve Kerr addressed Steph Curry’s shooting slump, saying “Steph is human, I think people forget because he seemed inhuman for so long … shots just aren’t falling.”
Steph Curry didn't carry the momentum from his first career buzzer-beater into the Warriors' game against the Utah Jazz at Chase Center on Sunday.
Not even close.
The Warriors managed to hold off a very good Jazz team, pulling out a 94-92 win, but Curry struggled yet against from the field. The reigning NBA scoring champ finished with 13 points on 5-of-20 shooting. Even more remarkable is that Curry made just one of his 13 attempts from 3-point range.
