Curry scored 24 points against the Suns. His teammates Jordan Poole (27) and Klay Thompson (29) accounted for more points. However, the contribution of the trio was not enough for the victory. Mikal Bridges had an important share in the victory on the side of the Suns with 26 points. The visitors started without the injured Chris Paul, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton.
For the Golden State Warriors, it was already the 21st loss of the season, the third in a row. With that, they do not get any further than eighth place in the Western Conference and it will be a challenge for a place in the play-offs. The Phoenix Suns is in seventh place with one more win. They put an end to a series of six defeats in a row in San Fran.
Portland could win again, against Orlando. Star player Damian Lillard finished with 30 points and a great dunk. Good for the best play of the day.
Another record was set in Miami. The Heat narrowly won 112-111 against the Oklahoma City Thunder in its own FTX Arena, with a perfect report from the free throw line, with forty hits. The previous record of 39 consecutive hits was held by the Utah Jazz since 1982. Dewayne Dedmon was the only Heat player who didn’t celebrate afterwards, he got into a fight with his coach.
