Though Curry's scoring production took a step back in the second half, he found other ways to contribute to the Warriors' offense. He added nine more assists to his tally, setting up scoring opportunities for teammates like Kevon Looney, Brandin Podziemski, and Quinten Post. Despite Curry's double-double and the collective effort of his supporting crew (sans Jimmy Butler, who sat out with back spasms), the Sixers held on to secure the seven-point victory.
