Stephen Curry shook off foul trouble to score 28 points to lead the Warriors past the 76ers.
Curry seemed invisible in long stretches, especially in the third when he played just 3:45 of the quarter and watched the 76ers keep competitive in his absence.
Each team played without a franchise star: 76ers centre Joel Embiid missed his fifth straight game with a sore left knee. Embiid, averaging 27.3 points and 13.5 rebounds in 54 games for the Sixers, said he expected to return next week. Golden State’s Klay Thompson sat out with a sore right knee suffered in Thursday’s loss at Orlando.
Curry picked up his fourth foul with 8:15 left in the third and sat the rest of the quarter. The game got wild without him. Damion Lee, former star at nearby Drexel, hit a pair of 3s in Curry’s absence that kept it a one-point game. Considered a throw-in as part of the Tobias Harris trade with the Clippers, Scott hit a pair of 3s that stretched Philly’s lead to five.
