In the last two minutes of regulation and the ensuing overtime period, the Warriors star scored 22 of his game-high 36 points to snap Golden State's three-game losing streak, including a clutch 3-pointer to tie the game at 111.
Not only did Curry do it on the offensive end, but he did it defensively as well, blocking Bucks guard Jrue Holiday's layup attempt to keep the game leveled at 111.
Overall, Curry's heroics eventually sunk any chance Milwaukee had, as once the reigning NBA Finals MVP gets going, opposing teams can only contain him.
