Golden State snapped a four-game losing streak with Tuesday night’s 110–105 win over the Sacramento Kings. It marked the Warriors’ second game with Steph Curry back in the lineup, and they responded with noticeable energy — particularly in the second quarter, where they outscored Sacramento 41–27 to take a 13-point lead into halftime.

Still, the Kings — despite their 21–59 record — made things interesting late. It took timely shot-making from Curry (17 points) and Brandin Podziemski (20 points) to close it out down the stretch.

Tonight’s matchup against the Lakers was initially shaping up to be the first meeting between Curry and LeBron James this season. However, the Warriors announced Curry will sit out the front end of the back-to-back as he continues ramping up from the knee injury that sidelined him for 27 games.

No Steph, Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford or Will Richard for the Warriors
With both teams dealing with injuries to key players — including the Lakers being without leading scorers Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves for the remainder of the regular season — the focus shifts to role players on both sides.
For Los Angeles, head coach JJ Redick recently made headlines for publicly challenging his team’s supporting cast following a blowout loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Meanwhile, the Warriors may have found a spark in big man Charles Bassey. Signed as a late addition due to frontcourt injuries, Bassey recorded a 14-point, 12-rebound double-double against Sacramento. He provided energy as a rim runner and lob threat, and with Golden State still thin up front, his role could continue to grow as the regular season winds down.
