Stephen Curry was on fire from the 3-point mark, scoring seven from behind the arch and a total of 35 points and adding six assists as the Golden State Warriors held off San Antonio Spurs 118-112 on Friday night in an In-Season Tournament game.
Cedi Osman brought Spurs’ hopes back with a 3 with 21 seconds and closed the gap to 112-109 before Curry converted four free throws the rest of the way and Klay Thompson made a pair.
Dario Saric added 20 points with four 3s and seven rebounds off the bench, while Thompson contributed 15 points and six assists. Golden State got their winning shoes back as they won for just the second time in nine games and still hope to advance out of Group C in the in-season tournament.
No. 1 pick Wembanyama had 22 points and eight rebounds but shot 1 for 6 from long range in what was San Antonio’s 11th straight loss. Devin Vassell led the Spurs with 24 points, while Keldon Johnson had 22 points and 12 rebounds for Spurs, who finish the In-Season Tournament with a 0-4 record.
