Stephen Curry amassed 27 points, nine assists and seven rebounds to help the visiting Golden State Warriors stretch their winning streak to five games with a 118-112 victory over the Boston Celtics on Wednesday.

The Warriors trailed by seven in the middle of the fourth quarter but used an 16-4 run to take a 104-99 lead with 2:30 to play on a Curry layup. Boston pulled within 115-112 when Payton Prichard made three free throws with 16 seconds remaining, but the Warriors closed out the win by making 3 of 4 at the foul line the rest of the way.

Golden State, which improved to 5-0 on the road, made 12 of its 13 free-throw attempts in the final quarter.

Buddy Hield and Andrew Wiggins each added 16 points for Golden State.

Jayson Tatum scored a game-high 32 points for the Celtics, whose three-game winning streak ended. Tatum has been the leading scorer in seven of Boston's nine games.

Derrick White made seven 3-pointers and added 26 points, and Pritchard finished with 16 points.

The Warriors have won seven of their eight games, which is the team's best start to a season since they won 11 of their first 12 games in 2021-22.

The Celtics were without forward Jaylen Brown, who has not played in the past three games because of a hip flexor strain. Brown is averaging 25.7 points and 7.2 rebounds per game this season.
