Stephen Curry scores 40 points as Warriors beat Bulls 119-93

Stephen Curry scored 40 points with nine 3-pointers as his old college coach from Davidson cheered him on, Draymond Green delivered another all-around effort, and the Golden State Warriors beat the Chicago Bulls 119-93 on Friday night for their seventh straight win.

Green added nine points, nine rebounds and seven assists after coming into the game questionable with a bruised left thigh he injured in Wednesday’s victory against the Timberwolves. Kevon Looney notched double-digit rebounds in back-to-back games for the third time in his career, grabbing 10 following a career-high 17 two nights earlier.

Andrew Wiggins added 15 points and seven rebounds and Jordan Poole had 14 points as Golden State (11-1) wrapped up an eight-game homestand that matched a franchise record. The Warriors’ lone loss came in overtime to Memphis on 28th October.

Curry crossed over and blew right by Lonzo Ball for a short jumper in the second quarter and shot 15 for 24 in his 52nd career 40-point game.
