After a brief one-game absence due to injury management, Stephen Curry returned to the lineup for the Warriors Friday night against the Sacramento Kings.
Although the former Davidson guard didn’t have his best output of the season, his 11 points were enough to pass two-time MVP and five-time NBA Champion Tim Duncan on the all-time scoring list.

Curry now sits 19th in NBA history and trails another Hall of Famer (Dominique Wilkins) by 164 points for 18th place.
Among active players, Curry is sixth in scoring, trailing only LeBron James, Kevin Durant, James Harden, Russell Westbrook and DeMar DeRozan.
Curry and the Warriors will return to action Sunday for their final regular-season matchup before a Play-In Tournament elimination game Wednesday.
