The Golden State Warriors provided their fans with a much-needed relief after a disastrous 51-point loss to the Memphis Grizzlies by defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves 113-103. Stephen Curry delivered a spectacular performance, finishing with 31 points, 10 assists, and 3 rebounds, including a clutch 11-point burst late in the game to seal the victory.
One fan humorously highlighted how Curry’s stellar performance energized long-time Warriors fans.

Good game but let's see if he can do this consistently now.

The Warriors relied on a balanced attack to snap their three-game losing streak. Rookie Trayce Jackson-Davis stepped up with 15 points and nine rebounds, shooting an efficient 7-of-8 from the field. Buddy Hield contributed 11 points, while Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski added 11 and 12 points, respectively, off the bench.
For the Timberwolves, it was a frustrating night offensively. Anthony Edwards led the team with 19 points, seven rebounds, and five assists but struggled with efficiency, shooting just 6-of-20 from the field.
Rudy Gobert posted a double-double with 18 points and 12 rebounds on 7-of-8 shooting. Julius Randle contributed 16 points, seven rebounds, and six assists but also had a rough shooting night, going 4-of-13. Donte DiVincenzo was a bright spot, scoring 19 points on 7-of-12 shooting, including 3-of-6 from beyond the arc.
The Warriors dominated early, building a 21-point lead in the first half as the Timberwolves shot a dismal 6-of-32 to open the game. Minnesota rallied in the second half, briefly taking a lead, but Curry’s clutch 3-pointers and free throws in the fourth quarter ensured Golden State held on.
The Warriors, now 15-12, snapped their losing streak and will host the Indiana Pacers next. The Timberwolves, dropping to 14-13, will look to bounce back in their upcoming game against the Atlanta Hawks. Fans are hopeful this win signifies a turning point for the Warriors as they seek to re-establish themselves in the Western Conference.
