NBA Twitter reacts to the Warriors snapping the Suns’ winning streak
The Warriors are back on top of the Western Conference standings, and the Phoenix Suns’ franchise record 18-game winning streak is over.
On Friday night at the Chase Center, the Warriors bounced back from a loss in Phoenix by dominating the short-handed Suns, who were playing without star guard Devin Booker.
Following the worst volume-shooting performance of his career, Steph Curry was back on target at home, draining six threes and finishing the game with 23 points. The Warriors also locked in on defense, holding the Suns to just 96 points in a 22-point victory.
Here’s what fans and analysts were saying about the Warriors’ win over the Suns:
The Warriors have won 11 straight home games by 13+ points, tied for the longest streak in NBA history.
The Warriors also did this in 2014-15.

Wiggins on Draymond guarding bigs like Ayton: "Not surprised, he's a DPOY for the reason, and he'll probably be DPOY this season."

"He is what Steph is offensively, it's just not sexy… Kudos to Draymond man, hall-of-famer for a reason."
JTA says Draymond Green doesn't get the credit he deserves for defensive efforts. Says he's the equivalent of Steph on the other side of the ball. @kron4news #DubNation pic.twitter.com/FjRGG9O0xn
