The atmosphere intensified as Victor Wembanyama urged the fans to cheer, seeking to pressure Curry.\n\nAbsolutely. I played with that.\n\nCurry, far from being intimidated, responded to the provocation, asking the fans to make more noise. Then, calmly, he scored the second free throw and, after an effective defense in the last second, secured the victory for the Warriors.\n\nThe previous Wednesday, Curry had already demonstrated his worth with 46 points, showing his dominance from the free throw line. With 15 of 16 free throws scored that night, and an impressive 66 of 70 on the season, Curry is on his way to leading the league in percentage for the sixth time in his career.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1115%2Fr1575775_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Stephen Curry\" title=\"\"><figcaption>Stephen Curry anot\u00f3 49 puntos contra los Spurs el viernes por la noche, igualando el r\u00e9cord de Michael Jordan con su juego n\u00famero 44 de 40 puntos despu\u00e9s de cumplir 30 a\u00f1os.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\nBefore Friday&#8217;s game, Curry was informed that he had surpassed 40 points for the 43rd time since his 30th birthday, just one short of Michael Jordan&#8217;s record of 44.\n\nBy scoring a three-pointer in the last quarter, Curry reached 40 points and celebrated with a gesture reminiscent of Jordan.\n\n&#8220;I did it backward,&#8221; Curry said. &#8220;It&#8217;s the second time I&#8217;ve done it. It&#8217;s a cool thing from an individual achievement perspective. Longevity is something I pride myself on.&#8221;\n\nThis was the first time Curry scored more than 40 points in consecutive games since 2022, a timely moment for a Warriors team that needed to recover after a losing streak away from home.\n\nCurry, who had been absent due to illness, returned with force, showing a new vitality in the games against the Spurs. According to GeniusIQ, Curry scored 28 points on jump shots, his highest figure since 2015.\n\nCurry attributed part of his success to a speech by his coach, Steve Kerr, who referenced the importance of teamwork.\n\nCurry acknowledged that night he was &#8220;the lead singer,&#8221; making headlines with his choice of sneakers and silencing the fans with his spectacular performance.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stephen Curry: A Historic Night in San Antonio Warriors star Stephen Curry starred in a memorable night in San Antonio, which began with a gesture that caught everyone&#8217;s attention.
