The Warriors entered halftime trailing by only a point but couldn&#8217;t overcome their leader&#8217;s second-half scoring woes in the latter periods.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One, I just got to play better,&#8221; Curry told reporters postgame. &#8220;I had a couple of good looks, but they were trying to funnel us into a crowd, use their length, their size. It really bothered us, and any game I play like that, it&#8217;s going to be hard for us to win. At the end of the day, you got to make adjustments, find space and knock down the shots that you&#8217;re supposed to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t do that tonight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps Curry&#8217;s lingering right thumb injury could be partially to blame, though the 11-time NBA All-Star expectedly wouldn&#8217;t use it as an excuse after the game.<\/p>\n<p>At 22.6 points per game during the 2024-25 NBA season, Curry&#8217;s scoring noticeably is down compared to previous seasons. In fact, his current scoring average would be his lowest in a full campaign since his second year &#8212; all the way back in 2010-11.<\/p>\n<p>And with Golden State&#8217;s record falling to 22-23 after Saturday&#8217;s defeat, it will need its franchise great to find his prime form to be competitive come springtime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warriors guard Steph Curry was held scoreless in the second half of Golden State\u2019s loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":28820,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[187],"class_list":["post-28811","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-steph-curry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BREAKING: Steph sets unfortunate career first in Warriors&#039;
