Although Stephen Curry is 35 years old, he still averaged the third-highest career average of 29.4 points per game and a 42.7% three-point shooting percentage last season. His skills are not affected by age at all. In the 2023-24 season, the Warriors basically maintain the backbone of the original Big Three, but add another legendary ball handler Chris Paul to match Curry, hoping to make Curry's offensive firepower break through again.

★ Stephen Curry ｜30 points, 7 assists, 8 rebounds, 3FG 10-5
The NBA held its mid-year championship for the first time, with the Warriors facing off against the Thunder in the first game. Thunder leader SGA was injured, but Luguentz Dort and Chet Holmgren scored 29 points and 24 points respectively to lead the way against the Warriors.
In the last 0.02 seconds of the game, when the two teams were tied, Stephen Curry challenged Luguentz Dort one-on-one and broke through for a layup to complete the winning goal. However, the referee also blew the whistle at the same time and ruled that the goal was invalid and decided to replay it. After checking whether Warriors forward Draymond Green touched the frame at the same time as Curry scored, resulting in an "impediment to the basket", Curry's goal was eventually ruled valid, allowing the Warriors to defeat their opponents with quasi-winners in two consecutive games.
