Curry tallied 17 points (4-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals over 36 minutes during the Warriors' 111-96 loss to the Suns in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament.
Curry was the hero of the Warriors' comeback victory against the Clippers on Wednesday, but the two-time MVP couldn't replicate that success Friday, finishing with a minus-13 point differential while connecting on just 25.0 percent of his field-goal attempts. It was a disappointing 2025-26 campaign for Curry, who was limited to just 43 regular-season games due to various injuries, including a knee injury that cost him 27 straight games from early February to early April. He ended the regular season averaging 26.6 points, 4.7 assists (a career low), 3.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 4.4 threes over 30.9 minutes per game. Curry is set to make $62.6 million in 2026-27 in what is currently his final season under contract with Golden State, though it's hard to imagine the two sides not coming to an agreement on an extension during the offseason.

Rotowire
Curry supplied 35 points (12-23 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four assists, one rebound and one steal across 36 minutes in Wednesday's 126-121 win over the Clippers in the Play-In Tournament.
The Warriors trailed by eight at halftime, but Curry erupted for 16 points in the third quarter and ended with a game-high 35. The superstar point guard was also electric from beyond the arc, draining a game-best seven three-pointers -- one more than the Clippers' entire starting five. Including the regular season, he has knocked down at least seven triples seven times this season. Curry and the Warriors are now set to face the Suns in Phoenix on Friday in another win-or-go-home Play-In Tournament matchup.
Curry (undisclosed) returned to Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Clippers with 7:59 remaining in the second quarter, per the broadcast.
Curry briefly exited to the locker room after his first-quarter stint. However, he returned to the bench shortly thereafter and was cleared to check back in.
