After struggling to find a rhythm through the first week of the season, Golden State Warriors star guard Stephen Curry exploded for a career-high 62 points in a 137-12 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday night.
Curry finished the game going 18-for-31 from the field, 8-for-16 from beyond the arc and 18-for-19 from the free-throw line to go with five rebounds and four assists in 36 minutes.
According to ESPN Stats and Information, Curry is the first player with 62 or more points in 36 minutes or fewer since Kobe Bryant also had exactly 62 points in 33 minutes on Dec.
