Warriors' Stephen Curry: Misses seven 3-pointers Friday
Curry managed to score a team-high 22 points (7-17 FG, 2-9 3pt, 6-7 FT) to go along with nine rebounds, four assists and two blocked shots across 27 minutes in Friday's 129-128 preseason win over the Nuggets.
Analysis:
Curry had lost some practice time leading up to Friday's game due to a sore throat, so he's working through some conditioning and timing issues. He missed his first seven three-point tries Friday night, and has generally struggled with the long ball during the preseason, making just 8-of-25 attempts. As we've seen in the past though, Curry's shooting skids are fleeting, and it shouldn't be long before he draws back closer to his 44.4 percent career mark from downtown.
