Stephen Curry is looking to bounce back from recent struggles when the Golden State Warriors host the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night.
Golden State is seeking to rebound from a 102-92 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday — a game Curry missed for knee injury management. The Warriors have dropped three straight and six in their last seven games, but a strong performance could be on the horizon with Curry expected to return.
Here’s a featured Stephen Curry prop bet to consider on DraftKings Sportsbook for Saturday’s game against the Suns.
Best Stephen Curry Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Stephen Curry Over 29.5 Points + Assists (-110)
Curry has averaged 22.5 points, 6.5 assists, and 4.8 rebounds in 24 games this season. His production has fluctuated, with uncharacteristic lows balanced by standout performances.
On Dec. 19, Curry was held to just two points on 0-for-7 shooting against the Grizzlies. He followed that performance with 31 points and 10 assists against the Timberwolves. Four days later, Curry managed only 10 points while shooting 2-for-13 against the Pacers, but rebounded with 38 points and six assists against the Lakers.
Curry’s resilience after poor outings suggests he’s poised for a strong showing against Phoenix, especially with added rest from sitting out Friday’s loss to the Clippers.
“I’m sure everybody has a different answer,” Curry said. “But I still have hope and faith and confidence that we can figure it out. It’s how I’m built… It just hasn’t gone our way. Until things change, you have to keep that mentality.”
Phoenix enters the matchup short-handed, with Devin Booker (groin) sidelined and Jusuf Nurkic suspended following an ejection for slapping Dallas’ Naji Marshall. Rookie Ryan Dunn will likely be tasked with containing Curry, and he’s handled top matchups quite well. However, it takes a full unit to handle Curry, given how active he is off the ball and how often he receives screens. As long as Phoenix relies on a traditional center, it will leave them vulnerable to Curry punishing them in space.
Curry’s ability to bounce back, coupled with the Warriors’ desperation for a win, makes this prop appealing. With Curry expected to play extended minutes in a tight matchup, the over on points and assists could provide strong value.
