Stephen Curry scores 41 points with five threes in Warriors win

Stephen Curry posted 41 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 5 threes and 3 turnovers on 13-of-19 shooting and 10-of-10 from the line in 36 minutes as a starter on Saturday, November 7 in Golden State's 126-119 win over Orlando.

The line was well above his 29.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.4 assists over his previous 7 games, but his value was already priced in before this game at 37.2 projected fantasy points per game and overall rank 16. He delivers elite scoring and threes with minimal turnovers in nine-category leagues, while his 34.5 per cent usage and 68.3 per cent true shooting support his fantasy points production.

Stephen Curry

Curry has now scored 31.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.6 assists in 29.6 minutes per game over 8 games this season. His 68.3 per cent true shooting and 34.5 per cent usage rate underpin the offence, and he has started every game this season. The 41 points came on efficient 13-of-19 shooting and perfect 10-of-10 free-throw shooting, both well above his season percentages.

The Warriors have one game left this week, on Saturday. Golden State plays zero games next week, so managers will need to plan around the absence when setting their rosters. Curry remains a hold at his current value, with his nine-category rank 16 and 37.2 projected fantasy points already accounting for his elite output.

What to do

• Hold Stephen Curry as an elite scorer and three-point shooter across all formats.

• Start Curry on Saturday in his final game of the week.
