Stephen Curry’s free throw streak ending at 51 nearly blows Warriors game, but Suns fail to capitalize

The Golden State Warriors advanced to a 5-3 record on Monday after defeating the Phoenix Suns 116-113. It came down to the wire after Stephen Curry missed a late free throw, opening a window of opportunity for Phoenix to steal the win. In the end, Golden State left with a victory, but that missed free throw ended an impressive streak for Curry. The 38-year-old guard made 51 consecutive free throws before missing his 52nd attempt against the Suns, according to Anthony Slater of ESPN.
