Warriors Edge Kings 110‑105 as Curry Returns, Ending Four‑Game Slide

Golden State snapped a four‑game losing streak on Tuesday night at the Chase Center, defeating the Sacramento Kings 110‑105. Stephen Curry, returning from a right‑knee injury that sidelined him for 27 games, scored 17 points, including two four‑point plays, and was listed as probable in the Warriors’ final injury report.

The matchup came after the Warriors’ loss to the Houston Rockets, a game in which Curry missed a potential game‑winning shot and was not in the starting lineup. For the Kings‑Warriors contest, the Warriors announced a starting lineup that kept Curry out of the first‑round starter slot but placed him on the floor early in the second half.

Golden State also fielded a healthy roster apart from a few question marks: Kristaps Porzingíngis (knee) remained questionable, while guard LJ Cryer (illness) was probable. Rookie Will Richard was scratched with a back injury, prompting Pat Spencer to move into the rotation, marking the 40th different starting lineup used by the Warriors this season.

Sacramento entered the game with several players ruled out, including Patrick Baldwin Jr., Drew Eubanks, De’Andre Hunter, Zach LaVine, Keegan Murray, Domantas Sabonis, Isaiah Stevens and Russell Westbrook. DeMar DeRozan’s status was listed as uncertain.

The win improves Golden State’s record to 36‑42 and keeps their playoff hopes alive as the regular season draws to a close.
