Curry finished with 30 points. He scored 25 in the final 14:24. Wait a minute, let me try that sentence again:

He outscored Georgetown 25-22 in the final 14:24.
Have there been better individual performances in NCAA tournament history? Sure. Notre Dame's Austin Carr scored 61 points in a game in 1970. UCLA's Bill Walton made 21-of-22 shots in the 1973 championship game. Kentucky's Jack Givens had 41 points in the 1978 title game.
Look at the names of those teams: Notre Dame. UCLA. Kentucky.
Curry plays for Davidson. In the Southern Conference.
And Curry has done it two games in a row. Soon he will go for three.
Later this week in Detroit, Wisconsin will try to stop him in the Sweet 16. Wisconsin has one of the best defenses in the country. Three teams this season couldn't break 40 against the Badgers.
Curry might just do it by himself.
