Paul George named Eastern Conference player of the month
To be compared to Curry in play-style would be an honor as well, because Curry is doing extraordinary things for the Warriors this season. The streak included a season-high 40-point performance in a 123-106 win over the Wizards on November 24, the second 40-point game of his career.
Hornets broadcaster Dell Curry told his son before Wednesday night’s game, “Do not ruin my night”.
Stephen Curry, named the Western Conference Player of the Month for October/November, started a bid for the same award in December with a 40-point game Wednesday in Charlotte that included a 28-point third quarter.
“Steph was incredible”, Warriors interim head coach Luke Walton said. Got a few plays called for me. The Warriors won 116-99, extending their undefeated streak to 20 games.
Curry turned what was a relatively stress-free game for the defending National Basketball Association champions into a rout.

“It doesn’t even sound right”, he said. We don’t always play our best, but we find ways to win.
The San Antonio Spurs maintained their 100 per cent record at home by breezing past the Milwaukee Bucks 95-70 for their 10th successive win at the AT&T Center, while Kyle Lowry’s 31 points lifted the Toronto Raptors to a 96-86 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.
This made it a long night for Kemba Walker, the Hornets guard tasked with guarding Curry. Thompson had just six points after that, finishing with 21 points and 3 rebounds in 29 minutes.
The other half of the Splash Brothers, Klay Thompson set the tone for the Warriors in the opening period scorching 15 points as they raced to a 15 point lead early. So naturally, Stephen Curry, former Davidson all-American and reigning NBA MVP for the Golden State Warriors, should have his jersey number retired for the Wildcats.
