NBA -- Warriors pummel Kings, soar to 18-0 By Erwin Diaz PhilBoxing.com Mon, 30 Nov 2015 OAKLAND -- Stephen Curry sizzled 19 points and the Golden State Warriors remained the only unbeaten team this ongoing 2015-16 NBA season. The depth of the Warriors bench was on display Friday night at the Oracle Arena in where Golden State hammered the Sacramento Kings, 120-101. Curry, for the third game in a row, only played three quarters and spent the final 12 minutes on the bench to cheer his teammates. The reigning MVP logged just 29 minutes and attempted only seven field goals. Harrison Barnes sat out after suffering an ankle sprained on Friday night against the Phoenix Suns. Brandon Rush started in place of Barnes, played 19 minutes, and exploded in the third period where he dropped four triples. He scored 14 points in less than a five-minute span, helping the Warriors jump to a 29-point lead. The Sacramento Kings played without center DeMarcus Cousins (lower back strain) for the third game in a row. Coach George Karl told the Media before the game that he was hopeful to have the big man's services back on Monday. Rudy Gay led the Kings with 20 points. " They're on a magic carpet ride right now. They're playing great, They're just playing well right now. They're moving the ball and everybody's shooting the ball. Their defense is great. You hate to be on the losing side of it, but it's impressive," Gay told reporters. Draymond Green added 13 points, 11 rebounds and 12 dimes to capture his second triple-double in a row and joined Wilt Chamberlain as the only other Warrior to accomplish the feat. Klay Thompson added 15 points. The Sacramento Kings will host the Dallas on Monday and The Golden State will travel to Utah and face the much improve Jazz on Monday to start a seven game road Trip.
