Curry, Warriors Bench Power 137-103 Rout of Slumping Kings

With Jonathan Kuminga still out of the rotation, newly activated trade eligibility — with Sacramento linked by reporting — added intrigue around Golden State’s blowout.

Overview

  • Stephen Curry logged 27 points and a season-high 10 assists for his second double-double as Golden State moved to 21-18.
  • The Warriors’ reserves scored 66 points, led by De’Anthony Melton’s 19, and keyed a late 13-0 burst that broke an 84-84 tie and expanded to a 15-0 run across quarters.
  • Golden State totaled a season-best 39 assists against 11 turnovers, hitting 42.2% from three and 54.7% overall to secure its eighth win in the last 11 games.
  • Sacramento’s slide reached seven straight losses to fall to 8-30, with Domantas Sabonis (knee) and Keegan Murray (ankle) still sidelined and the defense ranked near the bottom of the league.
  • Asked about a Warriors-Kings rivalry, Curry replied, “Geographically, yes — that’s about it,” after Golden State evened the season series 1-1.
