GAME LEADERS
The Warriors are within a game of advancing to the Western Conference Finals after taking a 3-2 series lead with Wednesday's 98-78 win over the Grizzlies.
After starting off with some sloppy play, the Warriors quickly turned the tables, erasing a 13-point deficit with a 16-2 run to close the first quarter. Stephen Curry made a trio of 3-pointers during that momentum-shifting run, and in the process became the quickest player to reach 100 career postseason 3-pointers. Curry finished the game with 18 points, all by way of the 3-pointer (6-for-13 3FGs).
Klay Thompson paced the Dubs with 21 points and both Andre Iguodala and Harrison Barnes stepped up huge for the Dubs. Iguodala had 16 points on 7-for-10 shooting while Barnes came through with 14 points. Curry, Thompson, Barnes and Iguodala combined to make all of the team’s 14 3-pointers, marking the second straight game in which the Dubs tallied that total.
