Although the Golden State Warriors fell 125-113 to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night, they managed to leave with a positive takeaway in the form of superstar guard Stephen Curry returning from injury and showing signs of being his usual self.

Playing for the first time in nearly a month following a left shoulder subluxation, Curry netted 24 points and said the following about how he felt being back on the court, per ESPN’s Kendra Andrews:

“It’s hit or miss with how much rust you will have and how close you can get to the speed of the game. The first quarter, it felt good just to be out there, running with our guys. … I felt like I got stronger as the game went on. … In the fourth, the intensity of the game picked up. We were playing very desperately trying to come back and make some plays. I felt like myself again.”

It was far from a perfect game for Curry, who went just 8-of-22 from the field and finished with three assists, one rebound and one steal, but he seemingly got stronger as the night went on, scoring 16 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter.
