The magnitude of Stephen Curry’s MCL injury made the Golden State Warriors’ 106-94 victory over the Atlanta Hawks irrelevant and hollow.
But that doesn’t diminish his performance on the court.
Before leaving the game with the knee injury that he sustained after his collision with JaVale McGee, Curry scored 29 points and snagged 7 boards in 25 minutes of action.
If you only look at the box score, it’s easy to assume that Curry and the Warriors had a ‘good game’. In the game’s first half, it was anything but.
