NBA recap: Curry goes for 47, Doncic puts up 36 on Durant, LeBron sits out & more

The NBA had 15 games on Monday to raise awareness for people to go out and vote on Tuesday, a day of rest for the entire league.

Stephen Curry scored 47 points to just barely his Golden State Warriors (4-7) past the Sacramento Kings (3-6) at Chase Center.

Curry, 34, scored seven triples to complete the come-from-behind 116-113 win and to snap a five-game skid for Golden State.

Luka Doncicmeanwhile, scored 36 points to record a ninth consecutive game with 30+ points, enough to lead the Dallas Mavericks (6-3) past Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets (4-7) by a score of 96-94.

The Los Angeles Lakers (2-8) are still the worst team in the league, this time getting blown out by the Utah Jazz (9-3) by a score of 139-116 as LeBron James sat courtside in street clothes due to left foot soreness.

There are no more undefeated teams in 2022 NBA season after Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks (9-1) fell to the Atlanta Hawks (7-3) without Trae Young.

Jayson Tatum drops 39 on the Grizzlies

The Boston Celtics (7-3) held off the Memphis Grizzlies (7-4) at FedEx Forum on the back of a 39-point performance by Jayson Tatum.

Tatum, 24, shot poorly from beyond the arc at 3-for-11, but attacked the rim to consistently get to the charity stripe.

Ja Morant led his team in scoring with 30 points and Desmond Bane put up 19, not enough to overcome Tatum.

While Tatum was the leading scorer, it was Marcus Smart who took control of the game with 15 points, 12 assists and eight rebounds.

Smart, 28, had the highlight of the day when he scored a left-handed floater and the foul.
