Stephen Curry and The Golden State Warriors took on the Houston Rockets on Monday. They are having a hell of a season and were then on a 5 game winning streak. Meanwhile, the Rockets were on a 3 game losing streak and were hoping to end it.

The Warriors won the game 122-108, stretching their win streak to 6. It was a close game till halftime, but the Warriors took over and kept the lead till the end. The Rockets cut the lead to 4 but Warriors made timely shots to keep them at bay. Curry had a monster game as he ended with 40 points,9 assists and 7 threes. This ended a poor run of form for him, as he has been struggling for a few weeks now.

There was an incident in the game which caught everybody’s eyes.In the third quarter, Kevin Porter Jr. was called for a foul for holding Steph Curry. He didn’t seem to agree with the call and let the ref know about it. After that, he stared down Curry and tried to intimidate him. But Curry didn’t seem to be bothered, in fact, he didn’t even look at him.
