The Warriors jumped out to a 22-21 lead after one quarter of action, but the Kings made a comeback in the second quarter, outscoring the Warriors, 31-22. 

Helping the Kings' cause on the night was the mediocre shooting of the Warriors throughout the game (39.7 percent). That included Curry, who had his third poor shooting night (3-of-15) in four games since signing a four-year, $44 million extension (via ESPN).

Shooting guard Klay Thompson finished with 22 points, seven rebounds, three assists and two steals for the losers.
