Draymond Green was everywhere, with a stat line that embodies his career: 9 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists, 6 steals, 3 blocks. The Suns again held Curry to a shooting performance that was below his standards (8-for-20 from the field, though 6-for-11 from deep), but the MVP favorite still canned 23 points to go with 5 rebounds and 5 assists. It put a firm end to the Suns’ 18-game winning streak, and put the Dubs back on top of the standings, with a glistening 19-3 record. When the dust settled, it was a thoroughly dominant 118-96 win. And a cozy lead turned into a big lead turned into Curry not returning for his regularly scheduled fourth quarter minutes. The offense went ballistic from distance, making 19 triples while shooting 48.7% from deep. The defense put the clamps on Phoenix (though it’s worth noting that the Suns were without Devin Booker, who injured his hamstring during Tuesday’s game). At one point Steph Curry, Andrew Wiggins, and Jordan Poole had back-to-back-to-back threes, turning a close game into a double-digit lead.Īnd from there it only grew. Golden State came out of the second half gates firing. The Suns cut the deficit to just three points at halftime, and that seemed to sound the alarm for the iconic third quarter Warriors. The Warriors took the lead early, and while they couldn’t run away in the first half, they were still in the driver’s seat for the first 24 minutes. After briefly relinquishing that spot when they lost by eight points to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, the Warriors regained it against the same Suns team. The Golden State Warriors are back where they belong: atop the Western Conference.
