Steph Curry was the driving force behind the Golden State Warriors’ impressive comeback, rallying the team from a 14-point deficit to beat the Denver Nuggets 137-131 in an overtime thriller. But it was Jimmy Butler who hit the shot that essentially sealed the win for Golden State.At the 41-second mark in overtime, Butler knocked down a three-pointer to give the Warriors a 133-127 lead, putting the game out of Denver’s reach. As the crowd erupted, Curry broke out his famous “night night” celebration, expecting Butler to join him. Instead, Jimmy sprinted right past, completely ignoring Curry’s gesture.Curry laughed about the incident later while talking to the reporters, revealing that he expected Butler to join him, especially since Draymond Green had done the “night night” celebration during a game last season.“Him taking that shot was huge,” Curry spoke about Butler’s shot during the postgame press conference. “Draymond last year, when we played Minnesota, he pulled the signature move out. I thought Jimmy was gonna do it, he left me on an island. But I appreciated the moment cause he knows what it means to close out a game too.”Jimmy Butler once again managed to stuff the stat sheet, finishing with 21 points, five rebounds, six assists, three steals and no turnovers. Steph Curry, on the other hand, put up a game-high 42 points, along with six rebounds, seven assists and three steals.Jimmy Butler hilariously wishes daughter for birthday by thanking Steph CurryThe win on Thursday brought the Warriors to a 2-0 record.
