Giannis was dominant himself, racking up 30 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals on 71.4% shooting.

His style of play is always perfect for a game like this, where competitive high-flyers often thrive. As teammates for the night, Steph and Giannis gave the fans a show.

Players around the league, both active and retired, shared their appreciation for Steph Curry throughout the course of his historic performance.
