Game Notes
- “Three weeks into his second stint with the Warriors, Matt Barnes has already established himself as one of the team’s more candid players. Asked after practice Thursday about facing Sacramento, which released him last month, Barnes didn’t hold back.
‘I’m trying to kill them,’ said Barnes, whose Warriors host the Kings at 7:30 p.m. Friday. ‘Plain and simple. Things didn’t go well there.'” — Connor Letourneau, San Francisco Chronicle -
In the 3 previous games versus the Warriors, Darren Collison is scoring 15 points per game while shooting 61% from the field. — @warriorsvox –
