Fri Jan 03 09:32:06 UTC 2025: ## Curry’s Perfect Shooting Fuels Warriors’ Rout of 76ers
**San Francisco, CA** – Stephen Curry erupted for 30 points, sinking all eight of his three-point attempts, leading the Golden State Warriors to a dominant 139-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. The win snapped a recent slump for the Warriors, who had lost 13 of their previous 17 games.
The Warriors controlled the game from the outset, building a 35-19 lead after the first quarter and extending their advantage to 25 points by the end of the third. Curry was instrumental in this offensive onslaught, scoring 24 points through three quarters, all while maintaining a perfect record from beyond the arc. He added two more three-pointers early in the fourth, pushing the lead to 30 points before both coaches cleared their benches.
Jonathan Kuminga contributed a strong 20 points off the bench for Golden State, who shot a blistering 56% (22 of 39) from three-point range and 61% from the field overall. The Warriors’ efficient offense exposed a 76ers defense that allowed a season-high point total. Philadelphia’s “Big Three” of Joel Embiid (28 points, 14 rebounds), Tyrese Maxey, and James Harden were on the court, but couldn’t overcome the Warriors’ hot shooting. Embiid played despite a left foot sprain, while Curry competed through a right thumb sprain.
Despite the loss, the 76ers, who had previously won four straight games, suffered their second consecutive defeat. The Warriors’ victory showcased a return to the sharp, efficient style of play that marked their strong start to the season.
Both teams return to action on Saturday; the Warriors host the Memphis Grizzlies, while the 76ers face the Brooklyn Nets.
