It must be the shoes.
Stephen Curry followed up his 40-point performance in Game 1 of the NBA Western Conference Finals by dropping 29 points Tuesday night in the Game 2 dismantling of the San Antonio Spurs. For both games, the star of the Golden State Warriors rocked a white, gray and blue iteration of his Under Armour Curry 3Zer0 sneakers, which arrives in stores on June 2.
It took Curry only 30 minutes of action to drop his 29 points, which came on 8-of-13 shooting, including hitting six of nine shots from three-point range.
The Warriors’ 136-100 demolition of the Spurs gives the team a 2-0 series lead.
