A brilliant display from Stephen Curry inspired the Golden State Warriors to victory over the Sacramento Kings. <\/span><\/p>\n Curry scored 17 of his season-high 47 points in the final quarter as the Warriors ended their five-game losing streak with a 116-113 win.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n The 34-year-old has scored at least 30 points in eight of the 10 games he has played for the champions this season.<\/span><\/p>\n “We know how to do it. I just needed to light the fire a little bit. Whatever it takes to get a win,” said Curry.<\/span><\/p>\n “There was a sense of desperation coming off that road trip struggling like we did. We still can show that championship kind of grit and competitiveness to pull out a game like that.”<\/span><\/p>\n Warriors coach Steve Kerr said: “Steph was just breathtaking. He’s obviously one of the greatest players of all time. <\/span><\/p>\n “He plays so well on so many nights, but this even seemed like something special for him. He just put us on his back.”<\/span><\/p>\n Andrew Wiggins scored 25 points and Klay Thompson added 16 for the Warriors, who are 12th in the 15-team Western Conference.<\/span><\/p>\n Elsewhere, the <\/span>Milwaukee Bucks’ <\/strong>unbeaten start to the season ended with a 117-98 loss to the Atlanta Hawks.<\/span><\/p>\n Teenager AJ Griffin came off the bench to score 24 points to set up a comeback victory after the Hawks had trailed 58-52 at half-time.<\/span><\/p>\n “Before the game started, the coach said ‘believe’. I feel the whole team wanted more,” said the 19-year-old.<\/span><\/p>\n “It was a great win. We knew the gameplan – just pitch in and make sure we had each other’s back.”<\/span><\/p>\n Giannis Antetokounmpo top-scored with 25 points for the Bucks, who had won their previous nine matches.<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>Los Angeles Lakers<\/strong>‘ poor start to the season continued as they lost to the <\/span>Utah Jazz<\/strong> for the second time in three days.<\/span><\/p>\n Lauri Markkanen top-scored with 23 points in a 139-116 victory for the Jazz, who also beat the Lakers 130-116 on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n
