GAME RECAP
IMPACT PLAYER
Stephen Curry, Warriors
The guy the Timberwolves could have … ah, forget it. He made nine of 18 shots, including four three-pointers, and scored 25 points in 31 minutes before he sat for nearly all of the fourth quarter.
BY THE NUMBER
8 Consecutive losses for the Wolves since their Dec. 10 victory over Portland.
14 Wolves rookie Zach LaVine's assists, by four his career high.
4-for-4 Three-point shooting by Troy Daniels, the first threes with the Wolves for a guy who made the NBA with his shooting. Included was one from near the Marriott in downtown Oakland.
9 Consecutive home victories for the Warriors, their longest such streak since winning 10 in a row in 1994.
