Season series: Suns lead 2-0
The Warriors have alternated wins and losses over the last 9 games. They’re coming off a 138-136 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder Friday night. They played 2 competitive games against the Suns, falling 108-104 at home Oct. 24 and 123-115 Nov. 22 at Phoenix. G Stephen Curry is averaging 21.5 PPG and shooting just 22.7% from distance against the Suns this season.
The Suns have lost 2 in a row and 4 of 5 as they’re missing a 3rd scorer with G Bradley Beal out. They hit 110 points once in those losses and haven’t scored 120 since before Thanksgiving. F Kevin Durant (ankle) hasn’t played since Dec. 5 due to an ankle injury. He practiced in a limited fashion Monday and is questionable for this one.
