After the game, Curry shared an update on his fitness and was pleased with how his ramp-up session translated into a competitive setting.

"I feel great," Curry told reporters. "Knowing you weren’t going to play a lot of minutes, the feeling of wishing I could have played more instead of looking at the clock means the offseason work paid off."

Curry is chasing a fifth championship with the Warriors and the upcoming season might be his best chance to achieve that goal. The biggest challenge for the veteran guard will be staying healthy and available when it matters most, that is, during the business end of the season.
