The Warriors remained in eighth place in the Western Conference with their second consecutive win over the Thunder and fourth win in five games.

Most of Curry's scoring came in the first and third quarters.

He scored 24 of Golden State's 37 points in the first, hitting a pair of 3-pointers in the game's first 70 seconds and then scoring 10 points in the final minute and a half to help the Warriors start to put the game away.

Curry then scored 22 more in the third, hitting five more 3-pointers in the frame, to record his NBA-leading 10th 40-point game of the season.
