The Warriors are finally getting back to winning ways

After theirs victory in Phoenix against these same warriorsThe suns started in a flying moment. Dillon Brooks scores his first five points, Devin Booker adds 11 points and, with 70% shooting success, Phoenix pulls back (44-32).

Things are getting worse for Golden State. Two technical fouls early in the second quarter sent Draymond Green to the locker room. Without their stellar interior, the Warriors are responding… on defense. The Suns lose the address and Steve Kerr’s men are back in the game. Nine points from Will Richard and 9 from Stephen Curry lead them to -3 at the break, despite 12 turnovers (67-64)!

Butler and Curry decisive

The Golden State rush was confirmed upon returning from the locker room. Their defense improved, and the Suns finished the third period with 5/21 shooting. Jimmy Butler steps on the gas, well supported by the skill of Will Richard, and the Warriors take the lead (93-87).

Stephen Curry and Guy Santos also hit from long range to increase the gap to +11 (103-92). Just like two days ago, Devin Booker and Colin Gillespie set an example for Phoenix, but against Stephen Curry, he doesn’t want to lose the fourth game in a row. The Suns twice come back to -2 (112-110) thanks to Booker and Jordan Goodwin, but the two-time MVP answers each time to confirm the victory for his team.

WHAT TO REMEMBER

Has Jimmy Butler finally decided to be more aggressive? Despite Golden State’s loss in Phoenix, Jimmy Butler played the role of Robin to Stephen Curry. The former Heat man, however, has lacked consistency this season. To see him aggressive towards the circle again last night, trying to score more often than pass, must have thrilled Steve Kerr. Whether in the first or third quarter, he looked to set the tone for his team. The Warriors will need this Butler to advance in the Western Conference standings.

Devin Booker on cloud nine. The defense failed to slow down Devin Booker last night. Just like in the second half of the last game between the two teams, the Suns’ star was an enigma for Golden State’s defense. He finished the match with 38 points with more than 50% success.

End of streak for Buddy Hield. The Warriors guard did not play last night. Steve Kerr’s decision ended his streak of 199 consecutive regular season games. Steve Kerr continues to change his rotation to find momentum.
