The 3-pointers just weren’t falling for the Golden State Warriors tonight – except when they held the most meaning. Warriors forward Stephen Jackson’s two 3-pointers in a 20-second span late in the fourth quarter enabled the Warriors to sneak out of Arco Arena with a 103-96 victory the Sacramento Kings Tuesday night.Both teams exchanged several leads during the first half, with Sacramento holding a narrow 55-53 lead at halftime. Kings forward Ron Artest would catch fire during the third period, hitting a 3-pointer and scoring 11 points in the period, enabling Sacramento to take an 82-81 lead into the 4th quarter. The Warriors’ Jackson would be the difference maker as he would score consecutive 3-pointers with 1:21 left in the game, putting the Warriors ahead 98-96 with 1:11 remaining. Golden State guard Monta Ellis would make 2 free throws with 27.1 seconds left to extend Golden State’s lead to 100-96.
Golden State was led by Ellis with 22 points, while Jackson pitched in with 21. Baron Davis would have another strong night, scoring 19 with 4 rebounds and 6 assists. F/C Andres Biedrins had a double-double, adding 13 while grabbing 13 boards. Sacramento’s high scorer was Kevin Martin with 28 points and 7 rebounds. Artest added 21 with 9 rebounds, while Beno Udrih chipped in with 16. Center Brad Miller had a double-double, scoring 10 with 18 rebounds and 3 blocked shots. Golden State (7-7) returns home to Oakland to host the Houston Rockets on Thursday, while Sacramento (5-10) remains home to face the Houston Rockets, as well; their game is on Saturday.
