Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry hits winner at buzzer, admits shot needs to improve

SAN FRANCISCO -- As the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets sat with a tied score with just over five seconds left Friday night, Steve Kerr had a clear play in mind for their final offensive possession: "Get the ball to Steph and get out of the way."

They executed it to a tee, as Stephen Curry drained the winning shot from 2 feet inside the 3-point arc as the buzzer went off. It was the first walk-off bucket of Curry's professional career.

The celebration ensued as Golden State beat Houston 105-103.
