Stephen Curry's sister Sydel Curry-Lee was tuned into the Golden State Warriors' duel against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. After watching his brother explode for 32 points, she had some choice words to celebrate the Warriors victory and the two-time MVP's performance.
Via Twitter, Sydel boldly said his brother wasn't even trying in the Warriors' 116-102 victory over the Bulls.
LOL Stephen is quite literally out there half-assing it with 32 😂😅

She is probably used to seeing Curry explode for more than 30 points. He didn't just become one of basketball's biggest stars overnight. She was probably reminding all those critics who think that the three-time champion is washed up.

This is Curry's first game back after suffering a tailbone injury, which caused him to miss five games where the Warriors went 1-4. Apart from his sister, coach Steve Kerr lauded Curry's performance. For Kerr, the game is further proof that the sweet-shooting guard is the focal point of the team (via Jas Kang of SB Nation).
“It’s so obvious, he just changes everything. The game becomes so much easier for the whole team. So it opened things up for us, and I thought every guy on the floor played well. Every single guy.”
The Warriors are now 23-24 for 10th place in the Western Conference, but with Stephen Curry back in good old form, things can only get better for the struggling squad.
