Stephen Curry unleashed a high-arcing three-point shot, similar to the ones he practices time and time again during his extended pre-game routine, and he swished it past the net right in front of his frenzied, celebrating teammates who were sitting on the bench for the Warriors.

Night-night, indeed, for that is exactly what the celebrity signaled with both hands at the side of his cheek as he ran away in the opposite direction.

In addition to scoring 33 points and catching a lovely skip pass from Chris Paul, Curry also made a three-point shot with 12 seconds remaining in overtime, which helped the Golden State Warriors pull off a victory over the Boston Celtics by a score of 132-126 on Tuesday night. This victory ended Boston’s five-game winning run from the previous game.

Steve Kerr, the head coach of the team, stated, “Nothing surprises me with Steph, that shot was insane, the catch-and-shoot, the arc, but I fully expected it to go in, and I think all of our fans did as well.” He has a mystical quality. I am unable to provide an explanation. This is exactly the kind of thing that he likes to do.

As the game entered overtime, Jonathan Kuminga made a steal and an uncontested dunk to put the Warriors ahead. He then retrieved a vital rebound on the other end of the court, which led to another scoring play. Boston, on the other hand, squandered key opportunity after opportunity when it counted the most.

First, Klay Thompson made a three-point shot that tied the game with 2:18 left in regulation, then Derrick White responded from deep, and finally, Stephen Curry made a three-point shot from the top of the arc to tie the game once more at 121. Before the buzzer sounded during regulation, the Celtics missed four shots on their subsequent possession, and they did it once more before the game was over.

During the final minute of overtime, a number of more important opportunities were lost.

At the end of the game, Jaylen Brown scored 28 points for Boston, while Derrick White scored 30 points for the team, which suffered its second loss in the last ten games.

At the beginning of the Celtics’ four-game journey to California, Jayson Tatum contributed 15 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists to the team’s performance.

At the 7:45 mark of the first quarter, the star forward for Boston hobbled to the locker room after experiencing discomfort in his left ankle. He returned to the bench approximately four minutes later, and then he went back out onto the court to begin the second quarter. On a night when Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis, who is 7 feet 3 inches tall, sat out to rest his injured left calf, that was a fortunate development.

With three minutes and fifty-six seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, Thompson made a three-point shot that brought the Warriors to within 114-110. He also had 24 points. In the four games that have followed his performance on December 12 against Phoenix, when he was restricted to seven points on two-for-10 shooting, he has gone 36 of 71.

“He’s changed our team with his shot selection the last four or five games, whatever it’s been,” according to Kerr.

At the 4:46 mark of the first quarter, Thompson made his 2,291st three-point shot of his career, which allowed him to move up to eighth place on the NBA’s all-time list, surpassing Vince Carter.

It was a night packed with fouls for the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player, Stephen Curry, who shot 11 for 21 and made six three-pointers. On Sunday in Portland, Curry’s record streak of consecutive games with at least one three-pointer came to an end at 268.

As a result of a strained lower back, the Warriors were forced to play without their rookie guard Brandin Podziemski during the second half of the game. At 6 minutes and 7 seconds into the third quarter, Curry was called for his fifth foul.

Following their respective bouts with illness, both Andrew Wiggins and Paul were able to participate in the Warriors’ game from the bench. There were nine points scored by Paul, twelve assists, and seven rebounds.
