Steph erupts as Warriors stun Kings with blowout Game 7 win

Share

Steph Curry scores on a tough floater in Game 7 of the NBA Playoffs after a crazy offensive sequence for the Warriors as Golden State tries to close out the series against the Sacramento Kings.

The Warriors couldn't take care of business at home Friday night, but they put away the Kings with a thrilling Game 7 blowout 120-100 win Sunday at Golden 1 Center.

In the first-ever postseason meeting between the Northern California rivals, Steph Curry and the No. 6 seed Warriors ended the dream season of the No. 3 seed Kings, who ended a 16-season playoff drought.

Curry was a man on a mission Sunday, dropping in a Game 7-record 50 points to carry the Warriors into the second round.

Next up for the Warriors: LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, who upset the No. 2 seeded Memphis Grizzlies in their first-round playoff series.

The Warriors will host Games 1 and 2 at Chase Center on Tuesday and Thursday, respectively. Games 3 and 4 will take place at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

The Warriors rode their championship DNA to an upset over the Kings and they will need that pedigree if they want to advance past the red-hot Lakers.
