Warriors star Steph Curry humbled himself after leading his team to a thrilling overtime victory over the Bucks on Thursday.

Golden State Warriors superhero Steph Curry saved the day on Thursday night and had quite the comical response to the Warriors’ win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

In the 125-116 victory, Curry helped tie the game in regulation to force overtime. He had 16 points heading into the final two minutes of regulation — when the game was over, he had a whopping 36.

Having just returned from injury, Curry found his shooting groove in a crucial game against the dominant Bucks as the Warriors look to earn a playoff seed in the competitive West. Curry took over at the end of the fourth quarter, racking up eight straight points, a tough 3-pointer that answered a late Milwaukee 3-pointer, and a pivotal block to keep Golden State in the game.

Then, in overtime, Curry scored nine more points and saw his team close out a much-needed victory against the team with the best record in the NBA.

After the game, Curry, visibly exhausted, was asked how he was feeling, and Curry cracked a wry smile. He told reporters that he was “just getting old.”

The greatest shooter of all time will turn 35 this year, though one could hardly say it’s the end of an era. Curry’s still scoring buckets, isn’t he?

Aiming to win his fifth NBA championship, Curry battled through various injuries this past season and is currently averaging 29.8 points per game. Golden State’s win against Milwaukee came after three straight losses to the Dallas Mavericks, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Los Angeles Lakers, all games in which Curry scored 25 or more points but couldn’t manage to secure a dub.

After Thursday’s narrow victory, the Warriors leapfrogged back into the sixth spot in the Western Conference with a 35-33 record. Can they make a late postseason push with old man Steph Curry at the helm?

Curry is obviously getting older — he’s come a long way as the baby-faced assassin who scored that shot against OKC or lost to Cavs’ LeBron James and Kyrie Irving in the NBA Finals. Just look back and pick any one of his greatest or saddest moments. Those moments have made him who is today: a legend still playing at the highest level.

From his early seasons to his MVP campaign to now, Curry’s game has stayed the same. Don’t count the years — count the player.
