The Warriors broke the Chicago Bulls’ record for most wins in a campaign by beating the Memphis Grizzlies 125-104.

Stephen Curry led the way with 46 points and became the first player to score 400 three-pointers in the same season.

Five-time NBA champion Bryant rode off into the sunset in style, scoring 60 points as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Utah Jazz 101-96.

Bryant’s 20th and final season ended with a career-high 50 shots and the fifth highest points return as he led the Lakers to victory.

Elsewhere, the Houston Rockets secured the last playoff spot in the Western Conference as James Harden scored 38 points in their 116-81 win against the Sacramento Kings.

The Detroit Pistons topped the Cleveland Cavaliers 112-110 in overtime, though both teams rested their key players ahead of their first playoff meeting this weekend.

The Atlanta Hawks missed the chance to clinch the third seed in the Eastern Conference as they lost 109-98 to the Washington Wizards.
