What happened

Golden State trailed by 11 when Draymond Green was ejected on two technicals early in the second half, then beat Phoenix 116-113.

Stephen Curry scored 34 points, the Warriors outscored Phoenix 59-45 after Green exited, and Charles Bassey’s career-high 19 strengthened the center rotation.

LINEUP CONTEXT

Green’s absence changed the defensive and center rotation mix, while Bassey’s performance gives Kerr another option if this matchup pattern repeats.
