Warriors: Steve Kerr’s real reason for letting Steph Curry play whole 4th quarter

Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors busted a six-game slump by defeating the Houston Rockets 121-116 on Monday night.

The Golden State Warriors are finally back in the win column, snapping a six-game losing skid by defeating the Houston Rockets 121-116 on Monday night — and Stephen Curry was instrumental in the victory.

The superstar played the entire fourth quarter, scoring a game-high 32 points while adding five rebounds and an assist over 34 minutes on the court. Head coach Steve Kerr explained his reasoning behind the move after the tight win.

“We weren’t perfect, obviously, but at this stage you just need to win a game. That was the focus tonight. That’s why I played Steph the whole fourth,” the longtime Warriors bench boss admitted. “He was brilliant, I thought, all night. Just gotta grind it out, so hopefully this is a good sign and we can get back on track.”

Curry made even more NBA history by scoring five 3-pointers in the game for the Warriors.

“Already the league’s all-time leader in made 3-pointers, Curry is the first player in league history to have four or more in each of his first 13 games to start a season,” wrote The Associated Press’ Michael Wagaman.

The nine-time All-Star and two-time MVP finished his seventh game this season with 30 or more points, and 10th with at least 25, per Wagaman. He finished 8-of-14 from the floor and 5-of-9 from deep.

“Haven’t had good energy walking off this floor in a while,” Curry admitted after the Warriors won just their second home game of the season and first since Nov. 1. “We needed this one for sure.”
