Stephen Curry scored 36 points, including a go-ahead 3-pointer with 14.5 seconds remaining, as the Golden State Warriors upended the Western Conference-leading Utah Jazz 119-116 on Monday in San Francisco.
The Warriors (36-33) won not long after their spot in the postseason play-in tournament was secured.
Jordan Poole added 20 points and Kent Bazemore had 19 for the Warriors, who pushed their lead to as many as 18 points in the fourth quarter before the Jazz rallied late. Curry has scored at least 30 points in 37 games this season, reaching that benchmark in 20 of his past 22 contests.
