Canon Curry went viral for crying courtside during the Warriors’ crushing Game 6 loss — a moment that melted hearts and captured the emotional toll the NBA Playoffs can take, even on a 6-year-old. But Sunday night? All smiles.
Stephen Curry and the Warriors responded in a big way, defeating the Houston Rockets 103-89 in Game 7. After letting a 3-1 series lead slip, Golden State left no doubt this time. Buddy Hield lit up the first half with 22 of his 33 points, and Steph Curry closed the show with a masterful fourth quarter to seal the win. His stat line — 22 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists — doesn’t even capture how much he settled the Warriors’ nerves in crunch time.
It was a physical, exhausting series, and Canon’s tears from Friday night now seem like a distant memory. With the win, Steph’s time away from family gets extended a bit longer, as Golden State prepares to face the Minnesota Timberwolves in Round 2. But you can bet Canon’s cool with that — especially now that Dad’s still in the fight. Curry does seem to be worried for round 2. “My mind is fried right now. I know what Ant is,” he said post-game.
From heartbreak to happiness — that’s the Curry family playoff story, so far.
Hang tight, fans, more is coming soon….
