On the next possession, Curry leaned on Nic Claxton when he hit a floater and was fouled when his shot went over and he made a free throw.
Demin then responded with a 3-pointer before the Warriors scored on their next three trips, capped by a dunk from Richard that made the score 116-106 and sealed the victory.
