Warriors 102, Bucks 93:
Draymond Green collected 23 points and 12 rebounds and Stephen Curry added a double-double as Golden State came alive late and knocked off visiting Milwaukee.

Curry scored nine of his 19 points in one key burst early in the fourth and handed out 11 assists for the Warriors, who returned home after a season-long six-game road trip. Klay Thompson scored 17 points and Shaun Livingston poured in 16 off the bench for Golden State, which improved to 25-2 at home.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Michael Carter-Williams scored 16 points apiece and Khris Middleton added 14 for the Bucks, who finished up their road trip with an 0-4 mark. Zaza Pachulia collected 13 points and 11 rebounds and Ersan Ilyasova had 13 and 10 off the bench for Milwaukee.

The Warriors were clinging to a 72-71 lead heading into the fourth but Green opened the final stanza with a 3-pointer and Curry decided to get into the act with three from beyond the arc on three consecutive possessions to make it a 10-point lead. Green and Andre Igoudala dunked on back-to-back plays to make it 89-75 with 7:36 to play and Golden State closed it out.

The Warriors shot 52.6 percent from the field in the first half but the Bucks dominated the offensive glass and managed to go into the break tied at 53. Milwaukee began the third with a 7-0 burst before the Warriors recovered and took a slim lead when Livingston got hot at the end of the third.
