The Golden State Warriors had a lot of difficulty against local rivals Sacramento Kings, but go a narrow 102-101 win on Wednesday night at home.
Klay Thompson hit a 17-footer with less than a second remaining and got the victory for his team after crazy second half from Kings, who were on their way to a stunning turnaround.
Domantas Sabonis put the Kings ahead moments earlier on a jumper with 16 seconds to play after Stephen Curry’s layup just before in a wild final minute. Curry netted with 33 seconds left following a 24-second violation by Sacramento that gave Golden State the ball for another chance with 38.4 seconds left trailing 99-98.
