Steve Kerr hailed the “amazing” Steph Curry after the Golden State Warriors star poured in 52 points in their 134-125 win at the Memphis Grizzlies.
Curry connected with 12 three-pointers as the Warriors took revenge for their 51-point loss on their last trip to Memphis in December – a game in which Curry failed to hit a field goal.

The tank is pretty full – Curry
“I feel in a good rhythm,” said Curry, for whom it was a 27th game with at least 10 three-pointers. “The week off helped. The tank is pretty full.
“The intentionality that we came out with in the first quarter was just a great game plan. To understand how they guard us.
“I thought about their style; they try to junk up the game on defense with top-locks and try to send me into paint traffic and all that. We had a counter for that to start the game. But other than that, it was just trying to win a big game and embracing the moment.”
Kerr heaps praise on Curry
Curry may have been typically modest about his achievement but Kerr was happy to eulogize over the veteran.
“The guy is 37 years old,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters after the game. “It’s incredible.
“Fifty-two points, with people draped all over him, all game long. The conditioning, the skill, the audacity, the belief. It’s just incredible to watch Steph at work. I can’t believe he’s still doing this at this age, but he’s put the work in, and he’s still got it.”
