Stephen Curry left the whole NBA world stunned after his insane Game 7 display propelled the Golden State Warriors over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. The likes of Trae Young, DeMar DeRozan and plenty of his peers in the league couldn't be more hyped up after he showed everyone what greatness is all about.
Chef Curry cooked the Kings on Sunday afternoon as he exploded for 50 points on an insane 20-of-38 shooting. He made seven of his 18 shots from the 3-point line, and while he did miss a couple of freebies, it didn't really stop him from dominating.
With his 50-piece against the Kings, Curry even made history for the most points ever in a Game 7. Kevin Durant previously held the record with 48.
NBA stars quickly took to Twitter to share their reactions to the Curry masterclass, all of them heaping praise on the GOAT shooter.
“Unreal Performance. Steph Different,” Trae Young wrote. DeMar DeRozan added, “Chef Curry a bad man!!”
Anfernee Simons also furthered the conversation, saying “Steph cold lol.” Meanwhile, former NBA player Jamal Crawford said, “Curry masterpiece!!”

Curry finished with eight rebounds, six assists and one steal on top of his scoring explosion. The Warriors now head to the second round to face LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
While it didn't come easy, the Dubs got the job done. And it's thanks in large part to Stephen Curry, who was just phenomenal the whole series.
