Stephen Curry scores 30 points, makes all 8 3-point attempts in Warriors' 139-105 win over 76ers

SAN FRANCISCO — Stephen Curry had 30 points and made all eight of his 3-point attempts, and the Golden State Warriors beat the Philadelphia 76ers 139-105 on Thursday night.

Golden State led 35-19 after the first quarter and extended a 16-point halftime lead to 25 at the end of the third quarter.

Curry had 24 points by the end of the third quarter after going 6 of 6 from 3-point range. He made consecutive 3-pointers early in the fourth to put the Warriors up by 30 and left the game as both coaches emptied their benches minutes later.

Jonathan Kuminga added 20 points off the bench.

Joel Embiid led the Sixers with 28 points and 14 rebounds.

Curry played through a right thumb sprain with tape on his right hand, and Embiid played through a left foot sprain after missing Wednesday's loss to the Kings.

Key moment

Curry had 13 points in the third, including back-to-back deep 3s, the second of which he banked in to put the Warriors ahead 89-68 with 4:49 left in the third quarter. Curry then raised both arms to his head in mock disbelief.
