Curry outduels Tatum as Warriors down Celtics

(UPDATE) LOS ANGELES — Stephen Curry outdueled Olympic teammate Jayson Tatum as the Golden State Warriors extended their strong start to the season with a 118-112 road victory over the Boston Celtics on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila).

The heavyweight clash had been billed as a chance for Tatum to make a point after being benched for multiple games by Golden State's Team USA coach Steve Kerr during August's gold medal-winning Paris Olympics campaign.
