Phoenix secures a 113-105 win over Golden State, extending the Warriors' losing streak to four games despite Stephen Curry's return.
- Devin Booker led the Suns with 27 points, nine assists, and key plays in the first half, while Kevin Durant added 21 points, 10 rebounds, and three blocks.

- Golden State's defense improved in the second half, cutting the deficit to five points late in the game, but Phoenix's composure and contributions from role players sealed the victory.
- The Warriors, now 12-7, have lost four straight games, while the Suns, at 11-8, aim to build momentum after a recent rough stretch.
