Steph Curry Exploded For 23 Points In The First Quarter Against The Wizards

Remember back in the good old days, before Kevin Durant went to Golden State, when Steph Curry would just go ballistic right out of the gate and score 25 points in a quarter, make like six three-pointers in a row after crossing up and embarrassing any defender who happened to be in his way?

Those were the days. We don’t get to see that too often now. Curry typically doesn’t feel like has anything left to prove. He’s all about winning championships. But some nights, he just can’t help himself. And praise the good lord for that because it’s truly a sight to behold.

Curry treated the world to one of his old-fashion scoring explosions on Wednesday night in the first half against the Wizards, when he put up 23 points on 5-of-6 shooting from behind the arc IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

We haven’t seen this version of Steph too often in the past couple of seasons. He’s been been banged up and at times more than happy to let Kevin Durant cook. But when he decides to take over, it’s a glorious thing, and boy, is it devastating for his opponents. Good luck trying to regain your composure after an onslaught like that.

Hopefully for the viewing public the predictions from some this offseason that Steph wants to remind everyone how bad a man he is on the court will come true, and we’ll see this kind of performance fairly regularly once again.
