As Curry left the visitors’ locker room at Golden 1 Center last week, he was trying to put into context what he’s feeling as the group he grew up with gets closer to the finish line.

Where people were celebrating the king before he had passed, and that’s what he wanted. I don’t think any of us want that, but it’s kind of like our way, a small way, of giving each other flowers, because we know how hard it is to carry this weight that we have for our whole careers.”
