Pours in 20 points in comeback win Curry tallied 20 points (7-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt), six assists, one rebound and one steal across 36 minutes Wednesday in the Nets' 111-106 win over the Knicks. Impact Curry has looked good in both of his first two games with the Nets, reaching the 20-point mark both times out while compiling a total of 11 assists and eight boards. Though he could maintain a steady 30-minute starting role for the rest of the season, Curry's usage and overall output as a scorer will almost certainly go down once the likes of Kyrie Irving (ineligible), Ben Simmons (conditioning) and Kevin Durant (knee) are back in the fold. Simmons could be ready to make his Brooklyn debut in the Nets' first game out of the All-Star break Feb. 24 against the Celtics, while Irving will return to action for the team's Feb. 26 road game in Milwaukee. Durant, meanwhile, could be ready to go at some point in March.
