17 of his 32 points came in the fourth quarter, and even though he got outdueled by Curry, he showed what he is capable of doing even to the best of the teams. This was Hield's second game with 30 or more points this season. His highest-scoring game was against the Oklahoma City Thunder in a loss where he scored 37 points.
