San Francisco — Back in the starting lineup at last, Stephen Curry took over late and brought his team back just as he has so many times during Golden State’s deep postseason runs.
Curry scored 30 points in his return to the starting five and the Warriors beat Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets 102-98 on Wednesday night to win their first-round series in five games.
It has been three years since Curry carried Golden State on a big playoff stage – like those five straight trips to the NBA Finals – but he’s certainly still got it.
