Piston’s buzzer-beater thwarts another c comeback
It was a timely reminder to the Dubs that Steph Curry is needed.
After five games without Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins, the Golden State Warriors lost to the Detroit Pistons 122-119 on Wednesday. The Dodgers’ place in the standings compensated for their missed opportunities in another wild back-and-forth at the Chase Center
With 4.2 seconds left on the clock, the Warriors fouled Pistons guard Killian Hayes, who gave Detroit a three-point lead. Thompson tied the game at 119 with a leaning three from the right wing after the Dubs head coach called a timeout. Things seemed to be heading for overtime with one second left.
After a Pistons inbound play broke, Saddiq Bey hit a fadeaway in the final seconds that fell through the hoop as the buzzer sounded.
Thompson scored 30 points. Poole scored 24 points. In addition to his eight points, Kevon Looney grabbed 15 rebounds. A pair of technical fouls led to Green being ejected after he recorded four points, eight rebounds, and seven assists.
