Stephen Curry scored a playoff career-high 50 points and answered time and again to will the defending champions on in their quest for a repeat.
Kevon Looney also grabbed 21 rebounds, and the Golden State Warriors advanced to the Western Conference semi-finals by beating the Sacramento Kings 120-100 in Sunday’s winner-take-all Game 7.
Curry’s points are the most in NBA history in a Game 7, topping former teammate Kevin Durant’s 48 for the Nets against Milwaukee in 2021.
The Warriors fell behind 2-0 in this series then won twice on the road in front of a hostile, raucous Sacramento crowd to become the first reigning champion to drop the first two games and win a postseason series.
