Seth Curry made his long-awaited return to the court for the Golden State Warriors on Monday night against the Utah Jazz. The appearance marked only his third game of the season and his first since December 4, after he missed nearly three months and 39 games due to irritation in his left sciatic nerve. Before the injury absence, Curry had appeared in two games for Golden State, averaging seven points per game while shooting 66.7% from the field and 50% from three-point range in about 16 minutes per contest.
In his return matchup, Curry provided a spark off the bench, scoring 13 points in just 12 minutes. Despite his effort, the Warriors narrowly fell 119–116 in Utah. Golden State mounted a strong comeback after trailing by 11 points in the fourth quarter, eventually tying the game with 3:18 remaining. However, the Jazz closed the game with key plays late. Blake Henson delivered the decisive moment, knocking down a crucial three-pointer with 29.9 seconds left to give Utah a lead it held until the final buzzer.
Hinson knocked down four three-pointers and finished with 12 points to help the Jazz secure their second win in the last three games with a narrow victory over the Warriors. Brice Sensabaugh led Utah in scoring with 21 points, while Kyle Filipowski delivered an impressive all-around performance with 19 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, and two steals.
Golden State was paced by De’Anthony Melton, who recorded 22 points and seven rebounds. Draymond Green contributed a game-high 10 assists, while Gui Santos added 15 points, eight rebounds, and five assists. Brandin Podziemski chipped in 14 points, eight rebounds, and four assists, but the Warriors still dropped four of their last five games.
