 He also added rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal to his stat sheet. 

Stephen Curry (who else?)  led the Warriors in scoring with 32 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. He almost completely undid the Warriors’ lead when he was assessed a technical foul for calling a timeout when the team was out of them, allowing the Kings to come within one point.
