Andre Iguodala scored a season-high 24 points on a subpar shooting night for the Splash Brothers, carrying the Golden State Warriors to a 119-111 victory Monday over the Atlanta Hawks, whose chances were ruined by a dispute on the court that led to the benching of Dennis Schroder. Bouncing back from their first regular-season losing streak in nearly two years, the Warriors won for the second day in a row without Kevin Durant, who is out indefinitely with a left knee injury. Stephen Curry had 24 points on 8-of-20 shooting, while Klay Thompson was held to 13 after a scoreless first half.
The Phoenix Suns fell apart in the second half of their home loss the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday. Veteran forward Kevin Durant didn’t mince words after the loss.
“We didn’t play up to our standards at all,” Durant said. “We embarrassed the fans and we embarrassed ourselves the way we played. I want us to be better.”
The Timberwolves scored 40 points off 22 Suns turnovers. Durant said when things get tough for Phoenix, they don’t deal with adversity well.
“When adversity hits, we start floating a little as a team,” Durant said. “That’s tough to deal with it.”
With the loss, the Suns dropped to 28-33 on the season. They are now four games out of of the final spot in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament.
LeBron James and Lonzo Ball both declined to reveal what was said during their brief chat after the Cavs’ 121-112 win over the Lakers, though Ball was quick to praise James as “the best player in the world right now” after their much-anticipated meeting.
