Stephen Curry scored 17 of his 31 points in the third quarter and the Warriors opened a regular season ending six-game homestand with a 118-97 victory over the Thunder on Thursday night at Chase Center.
Although Oklahoma City stayed competitive for most of the game, the Warriors out-scored the Thunder in each of the first three quarters and put the game away with a 23-10 spurt over a seven-minute stretch bridging the third and fourth quarters. Curry made three of his six 3-pointers during that spurt, and the Warriors rode that momentum to victory.
The win, coupled with a Grizzlies loss in Detroit, moved the Warriors into eighth place in the West, a half-game ahead of Memphis.
