The National Basketball Association had the two best teams of the league scheduled to go against each other on Christmas. The Phoenix Suns hosted the Golden State Warriors at Footprint Center and the Warriors stepped up against the Suns by winning it all by great offensive and defensive efforts in the final minutes.
The Golden State Warriors had a short handed roaster while going into the game with having multiple key rotational players of their like Jordan Poole, Andrew Wiggins and others side-lined due to league’s COVID-19 health and safety protocols. But still the Golden State Warriors managed to add a win for their record which now stands as the best record in the league as of now. The Phoenix Suns are currently ranked as the second seed in the western conference with the record of 26 wins and 6 looses whereas on the other hand the Golden State Warriors have redeemed their top spot in the western conference with the best record in the league of 27 wins and 6 looses.
The Golden State Warriors now are one up in their battle against the Phoenix Suns as both the teams earlier won one match-up each against each other and now the shorthanded Golden State Warriors look better than the healthy Phoenix Suns led by Devin Booker and Chris Paul as the young guns and the bench is stepping up in every situation when the team needs them to.
