The Warriors led by 11 points in the final frame, but the game was far from over. A 3-pointer from Pascal Siakam gave the home team a 112-109 lead with 37 seconds left to play.
After Jonathan Kuminga missed on Golden State's next possession, Quenton Jackson knocked down a pull-up jumper, providing the game's final points.
Stephen Curry led the way with 24 points. However, he shot 8-for-23 overall and just 4-for-16 from deep. Jimmy Butler III finished with 20 points, seven assists, three steals, and two blocks.
Phoenix Seeks Third Straight Win Following A Slow Start
The Suns dropped four of their first five games. Fortunately, things are looking up as the team enters this conference tilt amid a two-game win streak. This includes a 130-118 victory against the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.
Phoenix converted 14 of its first 20 attempts from 3-point range and led 102-78 through the first three quarters. San Antonio got within 14 points in the final frame (111-97). But the Suns used an 11-0 burst to pull away for good, handing the Spurs their first loss of the season.
Devin Booker powered the offense with 28 points and 13 assists on 10-for-15 shooting from the floor. Ryan Dunn and Grayson Allen added 17 points each for a Suns team that shot 58.2 percent overall and 57.6 percent from beyond the arc.
