SAN FRANCISCO — Stephen Curry finally made his return to game action Tuesday after a monthlong absence from a shoulder injury, but Golden State couldn’t get the job done against the shorthanded Phoenix Suns, losing 125-113.
The Suns had the Warriors’ number in their first two meetings this season, both in Phoenix. And despite playing without Devin Booker, Cam Johnson, Cameron Payne and Deandre Ayton, Tuesday was no different for the Suns. They pulled away by 27 points in the third quarter and held a comfortable double figure lead for most of the fourth.
It felt like a ballgame when Dario Saric made a layup with 2:16 left to put the Suns up 117-105.
