The Golden State Warriors came up with the goods once again. This time they downed the Detroit Pistons at the Chase Center with a scoreline of 115-110. The game proved to be historic for Warriors' talisman Stephen Curry. The star forward breached the milestone of 25,000 career points. He is only the 26th player to go past the figure.
A month ago, the Warriors' season looked done and dusted but the arrival of Jimmy Butler revived the season of the franchise and now with 11 victories out of the last 13 games, the Golden State look like a force to be reckoned with. Courtesy of the sudden surge in wins, GSW are positioned at 6th in the Western Conference table. However, it wasn't just Curry's milestone that had everyone talking-it was Draymond Green's hilarious antics after the game.

Curry Shares Hilarious Draymond Green Story
With his signature quirky personality and humor shining through, Draymond Green playfully snatched the game ball as the final buzzer sounded.
When asked about it postgame, Curry couldn't help but laugh as he shared the story. "Yeah, he's gonna keep it for me," Curry said with a grin. "I heard he's got a little bit of KD's memorabilia. He's just collecting stuff for all of us. I'll come back and get it eventually."
Stephen Curry led the charge with a stellar performance, scoring 32 points, including four 3-pointers, and converting all 12 of his free-throw attempts. The Warriors, now 36-28, are riding a hot streak, showcasing their renewed team chemistry on and off the court. This momentum is reminiscent of their dominant Kevin Durant era, which featured the iconic "Splash Brothers" duo of Klay Thompson and Curry.
When asked about their championship prospects, Coach Steve Kerr cautioned fans to remain calm. While the addition of Jimmy Butler in California has contributed to the Warriors' resurgence, the team's bench has also been a significant factor. Notably, Gui Santos impressed with 15 points and 6 rebounds in the last game. As the postseason approaches, it will be fascinating to see if the Warriors can sustain this momentum.
