Oakland, CA?Without All Star, Klay Thompson, who sat out the game with a back injury, reigning MVP Stephen Curry scored 34 points and Draymond Green had a triple-double as the Warriors came back from 17 points down to beat the Brooklyn Nets, 107-99, on Saturday Night at the Oracle Arena.
The 1-9 Nets came out on fire shooting 68% as a team in the first quarter and led 36-21. However, the reigning
NBA champions kept the game close enough down the stretch where Andre Aguodala swished a 3-pointer to tie the score at 97-all.
The Warriors, now 11-0, never looked back and dominated overtime, holding the Nets to just 2 points.
Green had 16 points, 10 rebounds, and a team high 12 assists for his first triple-double of the year. Former Warrior, Jarrett Jack, carried the Nets in the fourth quarter with big plays and led the team in points at 28.
The Warriors have now won 24 straight home games dating back to last season and also stay unbeaten at 14-0 in their ?Slate? Alternate uniforms.
Saturday night marked Filipino Heritage Night at Oracle Arena, and the Warriors were the first team in NBA history to wear a Filipino Heritage shooting shirts during pregame warm-ups.
