Stephen Curry reaches 4,000 career 3-pointers, Warriors rout Kings for sixth straight win
His first 3 was from the left wing with 5:35 left in the first. Smothered by Keegan Murray and DeMar DeRozan, Curry missed on his second try from near the top of the arc — after Green scored the first six points on a pair of 3s.

Could a healthy 76ers team make the NBA Finals?
Yahoo Sports senior NBA reporter Vincent Goodwill and fantasy basketball analyst Dan Titus discuss if a healthy Philadelphia 76ers could run the east and make the NBA Finals. Hear the full conversation on 'Good Word with Goodwill' and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript Make the case, then, for the Philadelphia 76ers to get through the Eastern Conference, to get to the Eastern Conference Finals, and to get through that to the NBA Finals. Make the case. It's health contingent right now. The, the, uh, the dwelling that's all it is, health. Are you sure? I think it's health. It's health at this point because right now you're, you're, their back is against the wall. We don't know truly how healthy Joel and Beat is right now. All we know is that he's supposed to be ready for training camp. I'm taking Darryl Morey and the staff at their word at this point. If he's ready for training camp and Paul George gets re-evaluated and everything looks great at training camp, let's go. You already don't have to worry about the Boston Celtics this year, which was your biggest gatekeepers to ever getting past that to winning that Eastern Conference Finals. You got a playoff with the, with the Indiana Pacers. You get them out of there. The Knicks, they sent you home in seven games and that, that was brutal to the, to the franchise. So now you can get your lick back. Joel and B, Paul George, Tyrese Maxey, solid trio. You got Jerry McCain coming back off of an injury. He was in the running for Rookie of the Year last year before he got hurt. VJ Edgecombe already bringing a lot of energy off the bench that they could definitely use. If everything breaks right, and then as long as they Beat is healthy going into the playoffs, they got it. If that doesn't happen, well, hey, they better hope that they turn it off, um, they gotta turn off the faucet quick because they got a top 4 protected right now that's going to the Oklahoma City Thunder. So if they don't think that they're gonna win this, they need to pull the plug early. And try to just tank again and hopefully they can get a top 4 pick in what's gonna be a really good draft, but I don't know. They could be, they could be screwed. They could be screwed. Yeah, that's the bottom line, but they could be screwed. Um. No, I, I think, look, BJ HO, I think Paul George is, that's a question mark for me. Another surgery, another injury coming into the training camp. And these guys are sneaky old. We only think of LeBron, Steph and KD as old. Everybody else is getting old too, and Paul George is one of those dudes. Close

Lu Dort vouches for Montreal to have an NBA expansion team
As the calendar nears August, the NBA has hit its driest part of the year. The offseason is mostly settled. Teams head to vacation for the last two months before they get back on the grind for the 2025-26 season. After winning the NBA championship, the Oklahoma City Thunder will enter next season as the favorite to repeat. But before they can do that, players are scattered throughout the globe. It's that time of the year when everybody heads back home and relaxes a little. For Lu Dort, that means going back to Montreal, Québec, Canada. He played a key role in the Thunder's championship run. He was tasked to defend the opposition's best scorers. He also stepped up on the other end as he shot 34.3% from 3 on 6.1 attempts in the playoffs. When you win the Larry O'Brien trophy, you get the entire summer to flex your bragging rights. In Dort's case, that means showing how he could be the perfect 3-and-D starter on an NBA champion. After going undrafted in 2019, he's had one of OKC's better developmental success stories into one of the top defenders. Now that Dort is back home in Montreal, he's had a chance to reflect on the Thunder's championship journey. He also pushed the agenda that his home city is good enough to have its own NBA franchise. The 26-year-old has never been shy about his roots. As NBA Commissioner Adam Silver poured cold water over expansion talks at the Summer League, Dort recently campaigned that Montreal is capable of having an NBA franchise. You always hear about Seattle and Las Vegas. Rarely about Montreal. The Toronto Raptors are Canada's sole NBA team. "I would say the talent and the audience definitely. I think there's a lot of people in Montreal that loves basketball. Talent, we have so many kids from Montreal that plays in high school now. That plays in college. A lot of them in the NBA as well," Dort said. "I really think it's possible. I'll see if it happens one day. I'll see if I'll be involved in that one day. It's to see but I feel like it could definitely feel like it could happen one day." Of course, Montreal has hosted NBA games before. They hosted the Thunder and Dort in a 2023-24 preseason game against the Detroit Pistons. There was an appetite for NBA basketball back then that's only grown over time. Dort has done his part to make that known. "I'm telling them like, 'Guys, Montreal is a nice city and I'm pretty sure the NBA would love to have a team there,'" Dort said. "Sometimes, whenever I get the chance to speak on it, I'll do it." Considering Silver slowed down the talks of an NBA expansion, it'll be a while before Montreal can place its bid. That said, he didn't rule it out. It's been the talk around the league for a decade. While everybody else around the sport is ready to add a couple of more teams, the NBA itself might not be.
