Curry leads Warriors past Jazz

Mar 22, 2015 - 6:17 AM Oakland, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Stephen Curry had 24 points and the Golden State Warriors defeated the Utah Jazz 106-91 on Saturday night.

Draymond Green posted 15 points, seven assists and six rebounds, while Leandro Barbosa added 19 points off the bench for the Warriors, who have won five straight and 10 of their last 11 games.

"We're deep and our offense is catered to getting guys touches," Curry said of the Warriors' success without Klay Thompson.

"That's a good team, they made some big shots," Utah guard Trey Burke said.
