The Warriors improved to 16-15 on the season, while the Suns dropped to 15-16 and grabbed their eighth loss of December.

Curry finished the night with 22 points, six rebounds and six assists in the victory. Kuminga contributed 34 points, nine rebounds and three assists, shooting 12-of-20 from the field.

On the other side of the court, Kevin Durant posted 31 points, six rebounds and three assists alongside Bradley Beal who posted 28 points.

Fans took to social media to praise Curry and the ever-improving Kuminga as they led the Warriors to victory:

Andrew Wiggins kicked off the scoring for the Warriors, sinking a three-pointer off an assist from Curry to tie the game 3-3 within the first minute, after he and Beal had traded threes.

Curry opened the second quarter with another assist, this time to Trayce Jackson-Davis for an alley-oop dunk and the Warriors went into halftime trailing 65-61.

Despite Curry's three-point struggles, shooting 4-of-13 from behind the arc, he continued to contribute on the floor as Jackson-Davis took over in the third quarter.

The game was tied at 100 with 3:28 left as the Warriors began to push for the win. A 30-foot three-pointer from Dennis Schröder gave the Warriors a 104-103 lead with 1:23 remaining.

A costly foul by Durant with just under 30 seconds left sent Kuminga to the line, where he nailed both free throws. Schröder followed with two-of-two from the line, helping to seal the victory.

With the win, the Warriors snapped a three-game losing streak and will look to secure another victory on Monday as they face the Cleveland Cavaliers at home.
