Curry ended Friday's 126-117 victory over the Mavericks in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals with 32 points (11-21 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and five assists across 37 minutes.
Curry improved his stat line from Game 1 in which he scored 21 points, and his efforts helped carry the Warriors to a 2-0 lead in the series. The star point guard ended a drought of three games without clearing the 30-point mark, and he'll attempt to remain effective as the Warriors attempt to solidify their series lead during the upcoming pair of matchups in Dallas.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Leads balanced attack in Game 1 win
Rotowire
Curry closed Wednesday's 112-87 win over the Mavericks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals with 21 points (7-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes.
Curry wasn't at his most efficient Wednesday, going just 3-for-9 from three-point range and 4-for-7 from the charity stripe. However, the All-Star point guard led all players with 21 points and 12 rebounds as Golden State took the first game of the series. It was Curry's first double-double of the postseason thus far and his first in any contest since Feb. 27. He has knocked down multiple treys in each of the Warriors 12 playoff contests this season.
Curry recorded 29 points (10-27 FG, 6-17 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal in Friday's 110-96 win over Memphis.
Curry averaged 26.0 points, 5.8 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game against the Grizzlies despite not shooting higher than 40.0 percent from the field in four of the six games. His shooting volume alone has allowed him to continue putting up big scoring numbers in the postseason, and that trend should continue in the next round.
Warriors' Stephen Curry: Quiet effort in Game 5 loss
Rotowire
Curry amassed 14 points (4-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and four assists in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 134-95 loss to the Grizzlies.
The Warriors didn't have much going for them Wednesday, and Curry was part of the subpar effort that resulted in a 52-point deficit by the end of the third quarter. The sharpshooter took only 10 shots in his 25 minutes on the court and finished with his lowest point total of the postseason. Curry will likely look to be more involved in Game 6 on Friday.
Warriors' Stephen Curry: Pushes Warriors to 3-1 series lead
Rotowire
Curry finished with 32 points (10-25 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 8-9 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Monday's 101-98 victory over Memphis.
Curry missed a lot of shots in the contest, going just 4-for-14 from three-point range and 10-for-25 overall. However, the superstar point guard led the Warriors with 32 points and eight assists and became the first player in league history to connect on 500 career postseason three-pointers when he nailed a triple just before halftime. Curry also came up big in the clutch, going 8-for-8 from the charity stripe in the final 46 seconds of the fourth quarter to help seal the win. He and the Warriors will look to close out the series in Game 5 on Wednesday.
Warriors' Stephen Curry: Paces team with 30 points
Rotowire
Curry posted 30 points (7-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 14-14 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Saturday's 142-112 win over Memphis.
Although Curry's three-point stroke was a bit askew, he nailed 50 percent of his shots on a night where the Warriors sank a staggering 63.1 percent from the floor. The one-two punch of Curry and Klay Thompson accounted for one of the Warriors' most potent offensive performances of the season, and with Gary Payton (elbow) sidelined indefinitely, Curry will continue to log maximum usage throughout the playoffs.
