How Warriors' Steph Curry impacted offense vs. Raptors without scoring

Share

Warriors superstar Steph Curry played in a game Thursday night for the first time since Oct. 30.

The two-time NBA MVP registered 23 points (6-for-16 overall, 3-for-12 on 3s), seven rebounds and seven assists in 27 minutes against the Toronto Raptors, while only turning the ball over once.

It was a very solid stat line for somebody who had been sidelined for over four months.

But to fully appreciate what Curry brought to the table, you had to watch and pay close attention.

So here are a bunch of clips that highlight his contributions, even when he wasn't scoring, recording an assist or directly involved necessarily.

Clearly the part in parentheses was a hyperbolic joke. But Curry is known for being an outstanding screen-setter.
