The Philadelphia 76ers broke a depressing four-game losing streak with a 119-113 victory over the Washington Wizards, while Steph Curry delivered another incredible performance for the Golden State Warriors in their victory over the Phoenix Suns. Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner’s contributions helped the Indiana Pacers defeat the New York Knicks in another game.The Phoenix Suns were defeated 113–112 by the Golden State Warriors thanks to a spectacular 3-pointer from 33 yards by Steph Curry.
Curry’s actions, which included latching onto Brandin Podziemski’s pass and producing a magical moment to end a tight game, enabled the Warriors to win for the fourth time in a row.
With less than five seconds remaining in the game, Curry made his tenth career game-winning 3-pointer. He finished with a total of 30 points.
Podziemski stated, “I just tried to get it to him,” according to AP interviews. “No matter how much time passed.”
The Warriors were ahead 84–82 going into the fourth quarter, but Devin Booker’s turnaround jumper gave the Suns a 112-110 lead, completely turning the tide of the game.
Jonathan Kuminga scored an additional 21 points, and Draymond Green contributed 15 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds in addition to Curry’s heroics.
In the meantime, Booker scored 32 points for Phoenix and Kevin Durant scored 24 for the Arizona team in a case of what might have been.
Following Curry’s three-pointer, they had two opportunities to win the game, but Booker was fouled under the rim in the first and Durant missed the second time around.
After several close games against the Suns in recent weeks, Warriors coach Steve Kerr stated that his team “were due” for some good fortune against them.
He said, “We were due.” “One of these close games was about to go our way. However, the boys merited it. It was not a random event.Frank Vogel, Kerr’s opponent, was left to regret Curry’s magical moment that concluded an otherwise tight match.
He clarified, “We just weren’t at our best.” “We performed adequately in our basketball game to defeat these men. The result is determined by one play in the last two seconds.
While the Warriors are playing away at Utah Jazz on Monday, the Suns will be looking to get back against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday.
