Stephen Curry scored 37 points as the Golden State Warriors outdueled LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers 123-116 to claim a crucial victory in their blockbuster Western Conference clash on Thursday.
Curry -- fresh from scoring 52 points in the Warriors’ defeat of Memphis on Tuesday -- produced a trademark burst of third-quarter scoring to take the game away from the Lakers down the stretch.
Brandin Podziemski also caught fire for Golden State, making eight-of-10 attempts from three-point range in a 28-point performance that helped the Warriors roll to their fourth straight win.
The Lakers were led by the 40-year-old James with 33 points while Austin Reaves finished with 31 points including nine three-pointers in a frenetic finish in the fourth quarter.
“We’ve set a goal of trying to lift our level of play, preparing hopefully for a playoff series,” Curry told TNT television.
