“So proud!!! 62?! Year 12?! Goodness,” she exclaimed on social media. “Best part is he’ll be excited about it sure, BUT it’s more about the team wins for him. That’s what makes him so special. Love you @stephencurry30.”
Magic Johnson clearly enjoyed Steph’s effort, noting he is the best shooter ever, while calling him an MVP candidate alongside the league favorites to win the award.
A career high 62 points for Steph Curry! STILL proving he’s the greatest shooter we’ve ever seen and a MVP candidate along with LeBron, AD, KD, Kyrie, Luka Doncic, Kawhi, and Giannis!
