The Golden State Warriors had a tough night away from home as they lost to the Sixers at the Wells Fargo Center. Stephen Curry and Jordan Poole led the scoring charts for the Warriors, but it wasn’t enough to register their 22nd win of the season. Apart from a win, Stephen Curry was chasing a big record – Ray Allen’s 3-point record.

Curry closed in on Allen’s record and needed nine from outside of the arc to match his record. However, Curry went a quiet 3 of 14 from beyond the arc in the Warriors 93-102 loss against the Philadelphia side.
