On the morning of December 26, Beijing time, the NBA West staged a peak showdown. The Warriors beat the Suns 116-107 on the road under Stephen Curry, outscoring their opponents and returning to the top of the Western Conference and also returning to the league number one. Curry showed a strong desire to attack in this game, not only scoring a game-high 33 points, but also mostly leading the team, and he even won a rare 9 free throw opportunities, which was rare in the past.

Since the beginning of the season, the Warriors and The Suns have competed for each other in the West, and have been interactively occupying the top of the league rankings for more than a long time. In the previous direct dialogue between the two teams, each side won a victory. At the end of the year, the result of the game can be seen as a bellwether for the final ranking trend of the Western Conference in the regular season, and the two sides naturally make an all-out effort.
The Warriors are still in a short-staffed situation, Wiggins, Jordan Poole, Iguodala, Damien Lee still have not returned, and the team's attack focus still depends on Curry, supplemented by Gary Payton and Otto Porter, who replaced the starters. But it doesn't matter if you don't have someone else, as long as Curry is there, the Warriors have a pillar. Both teams played a good game in the first half, and the Suns were four points ahead at the end of the half. Yi Bian'er fought again, the momentum of "brave three crazy" and "brave four crazy" came up again, and the Warriors, under the leadership of Curry, won the opponent by 4 points and 9 points in a single quarter, and won this focus battle without danger.
The Warriors scored all 10 of the game, and Curry once again showed a rampage, scoring a team-high 33 points, including five 3-pointers. What is particularly valuable is that in the past, Curry rarely got free throw opportunities, and the number of free throws in a single game was often around 3, and sometimes even once in the whole game, he failed to go to the free throw line. But this game is very different, in addition to the Suns defender's pocket can also shoot long-range shots from the outside, but also repeatedly staged a good breakthrough, and won as many as 9 free throw opportunities, hit 8 points, making the free throw also become one of his means of scoring. Curry also ranked first on the team in three steals and second in six assists, and with the exception of six rebounds that were not prominent, he was at the top of almost all of the team's technical statistics. Curry also had the highest plus/minus in this game, at +24.
With a treasure "boy" like Curry, the Warriors finally regained the first place in the West and the first place in the league.
