It is SAN FRANCISCO. On Tuesday (Wednesday Manila time), the Golden State Warriors defeated the Philadelphia 76ers by a score of 119-107, sending them spinning to a fourth consecutive loss. Stephen Curry delivered a masterful performance of 37 points, which culminated in the Warriors’ victory.
In a devastating show of shooting, Warriors star Stephen Curry made eight three-pointers, which provided a much-needed boost to both the struggling Golden State Warriors and the Chase Center home fans. This was especially important since the team had a difficult first half of the NBA season.
The Sixers, on the other hand, were left scratching their heads due to an injury sustained by the reigning Most Valuable Player, Joel Embiid. Embiid hobbled off the court in the fourth quarter after Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga suffered a significant fall on his left knee while the two players were attempting to grapple for a loose ball.
Embiid, who had been sidelined for the previous two games for the Sixers due to knee and Achilles pain, was given the green light to play on Tuesday, just before the game was scheduled to begin.
However, it was obvious that the center, who was born in Cameroon, was not in top physical condition and appeared to have difficulty moving freely during the game.
After Embiid sustained an injury during the fight with Kuminga in the latter stages of the game, the choice to start him became even more questionable.
Nick Nurse, the head coach of the Sixers, stated after the game that they are going to perform an MRI either tonight or tomorrow. Because it has nothing to do with the things that have been upsetting him, we are just waiting for it.
Obviously, the medical staff gave him the all-clear to play, and Joel played a significant role in that. According to him, he was in a good mood.
As the seven-time NBA champions aim to get their season back on track, Curry stated that the victory for the Warriors could not have come at a better moment. He noted that the Warriors are looking to get back on track.
After the passing of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic earlier this month, the Warriors are currently ranked 12th in the Western Conference rankings with a record of 20-24. This comes after the Warriors were left in a state of disarray.
“It’s been an emotional ride for the whole team this whole year,” Curry said just after the victory. “It’s been an emotional ride for the whole team.” “We have discussed the wounds that we have inflicted upon ourselves; we have lost games that we ought to have won, and we have dealt with some things that have occurred outside of the court in our family.
Therefore, there is almost always a feeling of hopelessness for us. It is simply fantastic to have a night like tonight where we get a win, go over the hump, and go back to the locker room and have something to grin about. The vibes are as positive as they can possibly be with something like that.
