Whether it's the preseason, regular season, or postseason, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry dominates the Sacramento Kings. Hanging a record breaking 50 points on the Kings in Game 7 of last year's opening round, Curry followed that up with a game-winner against them in the preseason, and then a 41-point explosion against them in Friday night's regular season game.

While that preseason contest was in Golden State, the other two were in Sacramento, where Curry revealed an unexpected possible reason for his dominance in that arena. 

"No, they've got great popcorn, though," Curry said when asked if Golden 1 Center is his favorite arena to play in. "So, shoutout to them for making me feel good before the game. I've got a big bucket right here. It makes me happy, so it might carry over to the court."

Whether it's the pregame popcorn or something else that gets Curry going, there is no denying his dominance over the Kings - especially in their building. Also bringing back his "night night" celebration after his dagger three on Friday night, Curry was in that zone against the Kings, which has become a regular occurrence.

The Warriors got in the win column for the first time this season with this victory, and will look to build off this momentum as they head to Houston to face the Rockets
