Warriors vs. Suns: final score and game details

These are scheduled starting times, not the time the game ended or this article was updated. Daylight saving time had ended in California and New York on November 1, so the November 2 tipoff used PST and EST rather than PDT and EDT. Phoenix remained on MST. For the authoritative event record, consult the official NBA game center, NBA games list for November 2 and Warriors schedule.

How Golden State came back to win

Phoenix controlled the opening period, outscoring Golden State 31–19. The Suns led 57–51 at halftime and at one point pushed their advantage to 17 points. Golden State narrowed the gap before the break and then outscored Phoenix 42–36 in the third quarter to enter the fourth tied 93–93. The Warriors finished with a 23–20 fourth-quarter edge, producing the three-point final margin.

Golden State briefly took the lead early in the fourth quarter, but the game remained close. With the score tied at 106, Georges Niang made a three-pointer with 3:54 remaining to give the Warriors a 109–106 advantage. Phoenix still had opportunities to respond: a late Jalen Green basket cut the gap to one point, but Curry's closing free throws helped Golden State protect the lead. The sequence is detailed in Reuters’ November 3 game report and can be checked against the CBS Sports play-by-play and box score.

The comeback happened despite Draymond Green's ejection in the third quarter following a confrontation involving Phoenix players. The ejection is a confirmed game event; it does not by itself establish anything about subsequent league discipline. Devin Booker later fouled out with less than a minute remaining. These incidents are part of the game account, but neither should be used as a substitute for examining the score progression and team statistics.

Which players stood out?

Curry led all scorers with 34 points, six rebounds and seven assists. He made 11 of 12 free throws. Brandin Podziemski contributed 20 points, while Charles Bassey scored a career-best 19 and collected eight rebounds. Yaxel Lendeborg added 16 points after his 37-point performance against the Los Angeles Clippers the previous night. Niang finished with 13, including the go-ahead fourth-quarter three-pointer.

For Phoenix, Booker scored 26 points with five assists. Miles Bridges added 21 points, and Dillon Brooks had 18 points and eight rebounds. The Suns' early advantage was substantial, but those individual efforts were not enough to secure a second win over Golden State this season. These player totals are reported in the completed CBS Sports game coverage and Reuters recap.

What do the team statistics show?

The final team statistics show that Phoenix had the higher overall field-goal percentage. Golden State nevertheless made two more three-pointers, nine more free throws and recorded three more rebounds. Those are observed differences, not proof that any single category alone determined the result. The more informative reading combines scoring efficiency with possession opportunities and the timing of late plays.

What was the context before tipoff?

Golden State came into the game at 4–3 with four straight wins. In its official November 2 preview, the team noted a 124–112 win over the Clippers on November 1, when Lendeborg scored 37 points and the Warriors made 22 three-pointers. The Suns arrived at 1–3 after a 127–120 loss to Denver on October 30. Those figures describe the pregame situation, not the teams' records after Monday's final.

Phoenix had won the first meeting of the season, 131–122 on October 24, with Booker scoring 43 points. The NBA record of that earlier matchup remains relevant head-to-head context. The November 2 result means the teams split these two early-season meetings. It also explains why the original preview's questions about Golden State's back-to-back schedule and Phoenix's recent win are now historical context rather than predictions.

Where can fans check the official result or watch a replay?

The NBA game center is the primary destination for the final status, box score, play-by-play and any available league highlights. The November 2 NBA schedule also marks this matchup final. For a second detailed game log, the CBS Sports box score lists the quarter-by-quarter scoring, team statistics and player totals.

Replay and highlight availability can vary by country, broadcaster and subscription. The NBA Tap to Watch service helps viewers identify authorized viewing options, while the NBA League Pass blackout guide explains why some games or replays can be restricted in certain locations. Before tipoff, the Warriors listed NBC Sports Bay Area as a regional television option; that pregame listing should not be mistaken for a guarantee that an on-demand replay is now accessible everywhere.

Chase Center's address is 1 Warriors Way, San Francisco, CA 94158. Fans seeking future events at the arena can use the official transportation information and parking guidance. Those logistical resources do not change the verified final score.

Bottom line: the November 2, 2026 Warriors–Suns game is complete. Golden State won 116–113 at home after overcoming a 17-point deficit, with Curry scoring 34.
