Her name is Elizabeth Tate. After Monday’s win, Curry told reporters about his 101-year-old fan who shared the magic touch with him.

Curry needs Tate at every game.

There is no denying that Curry was in the zone against the 76ers.
There also is no denying that the Warriors are undefeated and Curry is perfect from 3-point land when the two exchange pleasantries.
If Curry doesn’t miss a triple for the rest of the 2024-25 NBA season, at least we know who is partially responsible -- Bay Area legend and Golden State fan Elizabeth Tate.
