Short-handed Warriors fall at home to Kings 110-106

OAKLAND - Bogdan Bogdanovic made a go-ahead bank shot with 12.6 seconds left, lifting the Sacramento Kings over the Golden State Warriors 110-106 on Monday night with Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant injured and sitting out.

The Kings ended an eight-game skid at Golden State. The Warriors’ Klay Thompson missed a 3-point try from atop the arc with 3.5 seconds left, his fourth consecutive miss, and Golden State went 0 for 7 from the floor after Thompson’s 3 with 3:11 left.

Thompson finished with 21 points on 7-for-20 shooting with five 3s. Second-year guard Patrick McCaw took Curry’s place in the starting lineup and scored a season-best 16 points with career highs of seven assists and four steals.

Willie Cauley-Stein scored 19 points to lead six Kings in double figures and also had eight rebounds and six assists. George Hill had 16 points and Sacramento led 83-82 heading into the fourth.

Key Warriors backup Andre Iguodala, who was available with a sore left knee after beginning the day listed as doubtful, scored in double figures for a third consecutive game with 11 points.

Curry has a bruised right hand and NBA Finals MVP Durant missed his fourth game in the past five because of a sprained left ankle.

He played in a loss to the Thunder last Wednesday at his old Oklahoma City stomping grounds, though coach Steve Kerr said afterward KD should have sat out that one, too.

Reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year Draymond Green was available despite a bruised right foot he said he injured in the first quarter of Saturday’s win against the Pelicans. He had 14 points and eight assists, including a lob to JaVale McGee for an alley-oop dunk late in the third.

The Warriors had beaten Sacramento in 19 of 22 overall at Oracle Arena since a 105-98 defeat on March 27, 2013.

Sacramento had lost the last two in the series after stunning the Warriors 109-106 in overtime Feb. 4 at the Golden 1 Center.

RING FOR BARNES

Former Warrior Matt Barnes chose to receive his championship ring while Golden State faced Sacramento, which released him last season.

Barnes went to high school in California’s capital, too.

Barnes signed with Golden State after an injury to Durant last season. He’s still interested in playing if the right team calls.

“It was an amazing opportunity, a tremendous blessing,” Barnes said. “I wasn’t supposed to make it. I was one of those guys who wasn’t supposed to make it in this league.”

INJURIES

It’s unclear when Durant will return to the lineup, though Kerr expects Curry to play Wednesday at the Lakers.

“KD it’s just been lingering a little bit,” Kerr said. “It’s not a huge level of concern. We’ll just take it day by day.”

Kerr said he didn’t know until after Saturday’s night’s game about Curry’s injury when head of physical performance and sports medicine Chelsea Lane let him know the two-time MVP’s hand had become swollen.
