Apr 8, 2025; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (1) attempts to drive to the basket against Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) during the second half at Footprint Center. Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Stephen Curry amassed 25 points, nine rebounds and six assists, Brandin Podziemski scored 22 points, and the visiting Golden State Warriors blew past the Phoenix Suns 133-95 on Tuesday.
Trayce Jackson-Davis added 13 points and eight rebounds off the bench for the Warriors (47-32), who won their sixth game in seven tries.
Jimmy Butler III, Jonathan Kuminga, Kevin Knox II and Pat Spencer each put up 10 points for Golden State, which led by as many as 41 points and pulled even with the Denver Nuggets and Memphis Grizzlies in a three-way for the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference standings.
The Los Angeles Clippers were a half-game back of that threesome pending the outcome of their Tuesday game against the San Antonio Spurs.
Phoenix (35-44) dropped its seventh straight game despite Devin Booker’s 21 points. Ryan Dunn and Grayson Allen chipped in 12 points apiece for the Suns, who are all but eliminated from play-in contention. They fell three games back of the 10th-place Dallas Mavericks with three games to go.
After taking a 26-point advantage into halftime, the Warriors ballooned the lead to 81-47 after Butler’s mid-range jumper and subsequent three-point play.
Kuminga sank a pair of layups surrounding a Podziemski trey, giving Golden State its largest lead of the night to that point at 93-57 with 1:39 remaining in the third quarter. Allen split a pair of free throws on the Suns’ final possession of the quarter, cutting the deficit to 95-61 entering the fourth.
After Golden State cleared the bench, Warriors reserves Knox and Gui Santos hit 3-pointers and Spencer connected on two treys, extending the lead to 113-74.
Golden State shot 54.2 percent in the first quarter and Curry scored 13 as the Warriors took a 37-24 lead into the second.
Allen’s five straight points pulled the Suns within eight before Jackson-Davis’ three-point play stamped Golden State’s 10-2 run, pushing the margin to 49-33. Booker hit a stepback jumper, but Curry’s layup began a 9-0 Warriors’ spurt that forged a 58-35 lead with 3:07 left in the period.
Booker’s layup with 47 seconds remaining ended the first half for the Suns, who entered the locker room behind 69-43.

Rizek projeta time do Brasileirão que irá fracassar em 2025: “Derrocada absurda”

Kyle Dubas explains ‘amicable’ Mike Sullivan-Penguins split
CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Mike Sullivan made no demands. Sidney Crosby had no input.And Kyle Dubas has suspected for a while now that his Pittsburgh Penguins needed a new coach. The past week was about him finding confirmation before bringing a seismic shift to the organization he joined two years ago.Advertisement“There were times throughout the year that I thought it just may be time,” Dubas said of Sullivan on Monday.“It’s a lot to ask of somebody, when they’ve done such a long and successful job here, to be managing that and continue to transition the team, too. Off the top of my head, I don’t know that there’s an NHL coach that’s done that.”Sullivan won’t get the chance with the Penguins.Following a couple of meetings last week — Tuesday in Pittsburgh and Sunday in Boston — Dubas trusted his gut […]
Will Ashton Jeanty, 2025 draft RB class change the complexion of the NFL?
Henry McKenna NFL Reporter <!--> There was no shortage of excitement ahead of the NFL Draft about the running backs. Maybe you noticed the love for the star ball-carriers beyond the obvious ones: Ashton Jeanty and Omarion Hampton. But … maybe you missed it, which would be understandable, given the way the NFL has — or had — treated the position in recent years. Over the past five years, the running-backs-don’t-matter sentiment showed up on draft day and in free agency. It was hard to take RB hype too seriously.But then the Eagles won the Super Bowl on the back of Saquon Barkley and the offensive line. It was a team effort, yes. But Saquon was the centerpiece. I get it: That defense is incredible. And quarterback Jalen Hurts is among my favorite players in the NFL. But Hurts played an […]
Dálnice ohrožuje Leverkusen. Slavné značce hrozí konec v bundeslize
Hlavní problém tkví v tom, že dálnice A1, vedoucí kolem BayAreny, se od roku 2031 začne rozšiřovat směrem ke stadionu. Nová silnice zasáhne stávající tréninkové plochy, parkoviště i příjezdové cesty. Bez těchto kapacit stadion nemůže nadále fungovat.Nebo může, ale vedení bundesligy bez patřičného počtu parkovacích míst neudělí klubu licenci.Naděje spočívá v řepkovém poli u města Monheim, asi 8,5 kilometru od BayAreny. Právě tam má vyrůst nové luxusní tréninkové centrum za více než 120 milionů eur.The city of Monheim announced that it assumes that the district government will green light the construction of Bayer Leverkusen's new campus, but a joint statement by the CDU, SPD and FDP/FW parliamentary groups in the Düsseldorf Regional Council now clearly calls this into… pic.twitter.com/ystRYaqAbd— WerkselfXtra (@bayer04Xtra) April 25, 2025 Plány jsou velkolepé: přes dvanáct hřišť, moderní zázemí a prostory pro více než 450 zaměstnanců.Času je ale málo.„Nové tréninkové centrum je nejdůležitější strategický projekt pro […]
Is it time for the Grizzlies to move off the core of Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr.?
With the Memphis Grizzlies' season ending on a sour note in the first round against the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder, there are major questions as they head into the summer.The current iteration of the team's core, featuring Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr., should very much be under scrutiny, even if the team itself might prefer to give it another go.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementLet's start with Morant, as he presents the most difficult piece but not for the reasons you may necessarily think.Off-court issues aside (but certainly not forgotten), Morant is not easy to build around, strictly from a basketball perspective.The 6-foot-2 guard is hyper-explosive, to the point where you can make a solid argument he's the most athletic player in the NBA. That's obviously an asset, but the advantages of such athleticism are often negated because of his constant injuries and his […]
