Stephen Curry makes it clear you shouldn’t expect any more dunks from him.

The Golden State Warriors surprisingly lost 126-119 to the Philadelphia 76ers at Wells Fargo Center on Saturday, but that wasn’t the biggest talking point after the game.

Stephen Curry dunked for the first time in six years in the fourth quarter of this contest, and postgame, he spoke on why he did it.

Reporter: “Why’d you decide to dunk tonight? I mean, typically you lay that in.”

Stephen Curry: “I’m feeling pretty good, having dealt with some knee stuff all year, and you want to take advantage of a cherry-pick opportunity. That would probably be my last dunk, though.”

Reporter: “Of your career or the year?”

Curry: “Oh, I’m calling it right now… That was the last one you’ll see.”

Reporter: “Who’d you point at? On the bench?”

Curry: “Ironically this morning at shootaround, (Jerry) Stackhouse said he wanted to see a dunk. He hadn’t said that all year, and I haven’t heard that in years, and it happened tonight. It’s kind of funny.”

Reporter: “I thought you were pointing at Stackhouse. Seemed random.”

Curry: “Yeah, it was (a) very random comment this morning, and the fact that it happened is hilarious.”

Reporter: “But you’re saying this is gonna be the last one.”

Curry: “For sure. I will only lay the ball up. Took everything out of me to get up.”

In case you missed it, here is the dunk heard around the world.

Curry performed this dunk at a critical stage in the game, too, and fortunately, he was able to pull it off.

This isn’t something the 11-time All-Star does all too often, of course, as his last dunk was against the Sacramento Kings on February 21, 2019.

Curry remembered this dunk very well, too, when asked about it postgame. The 36-year-old also pointed out that he had never dunked at Chase Center, and you’d like to see him do that at some point in the near future, when he can still rise up a little bit.

While Curry was in good spirits when talking about the dunk, he was disappointed by the outcome. The Warriors were on a five-game winning streak and were facing a team on a nine-game losing streak, but they still lost.

Sure, they were without Jimmy Butler, but the 76ers were without Joel Embiid, so that’s no excuse.

Curry can’t be blamed too much for the defeat, as he finished with 29 points (10-18 FG), five rebounds, 13 assists, and one steal. The supporting cast didn’t quite deliver, however, with Draymond Green making some critical mistakes in the game as well.

This was really a contest the Warriors should have won, and a team chasing a playoff spot like them can ill afford to lose too many of these.

They now have a 32-28 record this season and face another struggling Eastern Conference outfit next in the Charlotte Hornets at Spectrum Center on Monday at 7 PM ET. It will be interesting to see how they respond in that one.
