The 56-point outing marked his fourth-best scoring performance ever (Curry\u2019s career high is 62, which he set in 2021), and the 12 three-pointers were just one off his personal best of 13 set back in 2016 (and two off the NBA single-game record of 14 set by Klay Thompson in 2018).<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors have gone through some difficult moments this season and had a losing record at 25-26 just three weeks ago.
