Curry now has 700 games with 20 points in the NBA; he's the 21st player overall and the first in Warriors franchise history to achieve that benchmark.

After the game, Golden State coach Steve Kerr had a to-the-point reaction to hearing of Curry's achievement.
"That's pretty impressive," Kerr remarked with his typical dry humor.
The former NBA veteran then was asked how many 20-point games he had in his own 15-year NBA career.
Kerr's immediate guess was four, with another tinge of sarcasm (the actual number was five, so not far off).
It might have been a self-deprecating jab at himself, but Kerr's comment does help illustrate the magnitude of this Curry record. The NBA's all-time record-holder in 3-point percentage could only muster five 20-point games, yet Curry now has recorded 140 times that figure.
And there should be plenty more to come.
