Warriors Stage Epic Comeback to Defeat Bulls Behind Curry and Butler's Stellar Performances
The Golden State Warriors staged a remarkable comeback to defeat the Chicago Bulls 132-111 on Saturday, overcoming a 24-point deficit in a game that showcased the team’s resilience and firepower. The victory was fueled by standout performances from Stephen Curry and newly acquired Jimmy Butler, who made an impressive debut in a Warriors uniform.
Curry, the Warriors’ perennial star, delivered a masterclass with 34 points, including 8-of-16 shooting from beyond the arc, and added six assists and five rebounds. His third-quarter explosion, where he scored 24 points on five three-pointers, was pivotal in turning the tide for Golden State. This marked Curry’s 46th career quarter with 20 or more points, extending his NBA record.
Jimmy Butler, making his first appearance since being traded to the Warriors, contributed 25 points, four assists, and two rebounds. The six-time All-Star, who joined Golden State in a multi-team trade earlier in the week, displayed his trademark toughness and versatility, fitting seamlessly alongside Curry. Notably, Butler wore “Butler III” on his jersey to honor his late father, who passed away a year ago to the day.
The Warriors’ comeback was a team effort, as they outscored the Bulls 42-25 in the third quarter and went on a 56-13 run in the second half. The win improved Golden State’s record to 26-26, positioning them in 10th place in the Western Conference and within reach of a play-in spot.
With Curry and Butler leading the charge, the Warriors are showing signs of resurgence as they aim to climb the standings. Their next challenge comes on Monday against the Milwaukee Bucks, where they will look to continue their momentum.
