On December 18, Beijing time, the NBA regular season Warriors defeated the Trail Blazers away. In this game, Curry felt sluggish. In the whole game, Curry was 2-of-12 from the field and 0-of-8 from three-point range, scoring only 7 points and 8 assists. But fortunately, two much-maligned Warriors players this season, Wiggins and Thompson, have played well, and both have scored 20+ points to help the team win.
In this game, Curry's hand was very struggling and he was not online. At the last minute, Curry missed a long-range three-point attempt. As a result, Curry's consecutive three-pointers have stopped at 286 games, a 77-year record that has come to an end. The last time Curry didn't hit a three-pointer in a single game was back on November 8, 2018. Five years later, Curry's record "finally" came to an end. It is worth mentioning that the second-longest three-point streak in NBA history, also held by Curry himself, was set in 2014-2016 with 157 consecutive three-point attempts.
The Warriors were able to win this game, and Thompson and Wiggins took the credit. In this game, Thompson scored 28 points on 11-of-16, including 5-of-10 three-pointers. Especially in the third quarter, Thompson scored 13 points in a single quarter. In the midst of the Warriors' slump as a team, he helped the team not collapse. This is the third straight game in which Thompson has scored 20 points, and his form is gradually returning.
And Wiggins was very efficient in this game. He came off the bench in this game, shooting 9-of-12 from the field and 4-of-6 from three-point range to finish with 25 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists. The 25 points were also Wiggins' third-highest in a single game this season. Among them, Wiggins scored 10 points alone in the fourth quarter, and he, along with Thompson, scored five points in a row at 93 to help the Warriors stabilize the situation. In the end, the Warriors also won.
Of course, the Warriors won this game very thrillingly. At the last minute, Curry went out of bounds under the bag. Judging from the slow motion, Curry seems to be the last to touch the ball out of bounds. But since the Trail Blazers have no timeout, they can't challenge. The Warriors also won the game thanks to Podzemski's offensive foul.
