Phoenix @ Golden State preview

Last Meeting ( Mar 17, 2018 ) Golden State 124, Phoenix 109

The Golden State Warriors have dealt with a plethora of injuries of late, and they now must press on following the shock of another scary one. A night after seeing reserve guard Patrick McCaw leave the floor in Sacramento on a stretcher, the Warriors will try to extend a pair of long losing streaks for the visiting Phoenix Suns when the teams meet Sunday.

McCaw was inadvertently undercut on a layup attempt during Golden State's 112-96 win over the Kings and was on the court for several minutes before being taken to a hospital for further evaluation. "It was really scary," Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters. "He was in a lot of pain. Landed on his back. ... Scary stuff." The Warriors have won 13 in a row over the Suns - including two this season by an average of 30.5 points - and Phoenix has dropped 14 in a row overall after falling on a buzzer-beater at Houston on Friday after leading by 21 points in the second half, inching closer to clinching the worst record in the NBA. "There's no better way of learning than being in these games and going through an experience like that," Suns coach Jay Triano told the media.

ABOUT THE SUNS (19-58): Devin Booker (hand), T.J. Warren (knee) and Elfrid Payton (knee) sat out the loss to Houston and all remain day-to-day. Rookie Josh Jackson has made the most of the available minutes and scored 27 points on 13-of-24 shooting on Friday to finish March with a scoring average of 17.5 points. Troy Daniels buried seven 3-pointers en route to 23 points against the Rockets and is 29-of-61 from beyond the arc over a six-game span.

ABOUT THE WARRIORS (55-21): While McCaw is hurt, the Warriors did get sharpshooter Klay Thompson back from a broken thumb and he went for 25 points in 32 minutes in the win over the Kings. Additionally, Kevin Durant - who returned from a six-game absence Thursday against Milwaukee but was promptly ejected - had his best effort in well over two weeks with 27 points, 10 rebounds and five assists. Kerr did not address the game at all during an emotional postgame in Sacramento, choosing instead to offer support for McCaw.
