Down by 20 at one point. The heroics of Stephen Curry kicked in to force overtime with an amazing three with just 2.8 seconds remaining. Curry then cruised to a 40 point and 9 assists night, completing the comeback victory for the Warriors in game 3 over the Pelicans. Not bad for a guy who barely seen the biggest shot of his life.
“Once I got it off, I was just bracing for impact,” Curry said. “I got hit pretty hard and thought I was going to get the foul. I’ve actually seen the play (on video), and it was pretty obvious. Once I landed and didn’t get hurt, I looked up and saw the ball go in. … It was a good feeling.”
The Warriors now have a 3-0 lead in the series and have a chance to close it out on Saturday.
