How many points did Steph Curry score today against Clippers? (April 13)

For their final game of the season, Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors (48-33) are facing the LA Clippers (49-32). Despite it being the last game of the season, the results will be crucial in determining where these two squads will be seeded once the playoffs begin.

A win for the Warriors could be the difference between a guaranteed playoff spot or a trip to the play-in. As such, Curry's experience and leadership are a much-needed factor.

In the first quarter, he scored five points by draining a 3-pointer and converting on two free throw attempts.

The second quarter started with Curry on the bench due to foul trouble as he picked up two in the opening frame. He did not check in until the 7:24 mark of the second quarter following a Warriors timeout.

He failed to make an impact immediately, missing his first two shots. In fact, he did not score until the 1:20 mark, burying a 3-pointer off a Jimmy Butler dime. Later, he was sent to the line off a Kris Dunn foul and he converted both free throws.

Curry hit another deep shot with only eight seconds left in the first half to put the Warriors up 58-57. However, Dunn drilled a buzzer-beating 3-pointer on the other end to take the lead for the Clippers.

The Warriors saw a 12-point lead evaporate in the second quarter and are entering halftime trailing by two.

Steph Curry continued to have a quiet game to begin the third quarter. He was a non-factor in the scoring and even turned the ball over twice in the opening minutes of the second half. He would not contribute to the scoring until the 5:46 mark, hitting a layup. He was subbed out at the 2:55 mark.

By the end of the quarter, he had missed eight of his 12 attempts and his struggles kept Golden State from pulling away. After the third, the score was at 83-82 in favor of the Clippers.

Curry was subbed in at the 9:03 mark of the fourth quarter with the Warriors trailing 90-86. A switch was seemingly flipped and he ended up making every single one of his field goal and free throw attempts. From only having 15 points after the first three, he more than doubled his scoring with 33.

Despite Steph Curry’s hot performance in the final quarter, the game remained tight. By the time the buzzer ended signaling the end of the fourth, the score was still tied (111-111). In overtime, he scored only once, hitting a 3-pointer close to the two-minute mark.

The Clippers would go on to win the game 124-119, which means they secured the fifth seed to take on the Denver Nuggets. Meanwhile, the Warriors are play-in tournament-bound.

The Golden State Warriors will battle the Memphis Grizzlies for the seventh-seed

Despite losing to the Clippers, Steph Curry and company still have a chance to make the playoffs. Standing in their way for the seventh seed is the Memphis Grizzlies led by Ja Morant. The Warriors and the Grizzlies clashed four times in the regular season. Out of those four, Golden State won three.

Curry played in only three of these games and has been polarizing in his performances against them.

The first time these two teams played (Nov. 15), he scored 13 points shooting 4-for-9. The next time they played against each other (Dec. 19), he was a total non-factor, scoring only two points in 24 minutes of action, both of which came from free throws. He went 0-7 in that game.

He looked different against them in their clash earlier this month, registering a double-double with 52 points and 10 rebounds. He also hit 12 3-pointers in that contest to help the Golden State Warriors secure the victory.
