Looking at Steph Curry’s Game 7 history
Steph Curry’s first taste of a Game 7 came in 2014 against the LA Clippers, where he dropped 33 points and handed out nine assists, though the Warriors ultimately fell to the Clippers.
In 2016, Curry found himself in two Game 7s. The first was a standout performance in the Western Conference Finals against the OKC Thunder, pouring in 36 points to complete a comeback from a 3-1 series deficit, helping Golden State clinch a 96-88 victory and a Finals berth.
But that same year, the tables were turned in the Finals, as the Cleveland Cavaliers erased a 3-1 hole to claim the title in Game 7, 93-89. Curry struggled mightily in that one, finishing with just 17 points on 6-for-19 shooting — his least effective Game 7 to date.
He rebounded in 2018, tallying 27 points and 10 assists to push the Warriors past the Rockets in another Game 7 showdown.
Curry’s best-ever Game 7 outing came in 2023, when he torched the Sacramento Kings for 50 points in a statement win.
Tonight, he had 22 points, stepping up in the fourth quarter to help lift the Warriors past the first round. Curry is now 4-2 in Game 7s.
