Just when you think you’ve seen the best of Steph Curry, the Golden State Warrior takes his game to an even higher level.
On April 30, Curry set an NBA Game 7 Playoffs record with 50 points in the Warriors’ 120-100 rout of host Sacramento.
Curry’s “half a hundred” broke the old Game 7 mark of 48 set by Kevin Durant in the Nets 2021 win over Milwaukee.
Curry was 20-for-38 from the field against the Kings including seven of 18 from behind the arc.
Next up for the Warriors is a best-of-seven series with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Jordan tops the list
Former Chicago Bulls great Michael Jordan holds the NBA record for most points in any playoff game with 63. That came in 1986.
Next on the list of former Los Angeles Laker Elgin Baylor with 61 points in 1962
Jordan scored at least 55 points in a playoff game five times. Earlier this season Miami’s Jimmy Butler had 56.
Others with at least 55 in a playoff game are Charles Barkley, Wilt Chamberlain, Damian Lillard, Allen Iverson and Rick Barry.
