The Los Angeles Lakers lacked LeBron James (left ankle) on Thursday night, however the Golden State Warriors quite had Stephen Curry offered.
And he was cooking.
The Dubs’ star went off for 32 points and 8 helps, sinking 6 triples, as the Warriors beat the Lakers quickly, 128-110. Curry had 25 of those points by halftime.
