SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - This isn't the first time the Golden State Warriors have looked like a playoff team just after the postseason slipped out of reach. Still, if Jason Richardson and his teammates maintain this latest late-season surge, they've got a slim chance to put themselves right back in the pressure of the playoff race.
Adonal Foyle scored a season-high 18 points, Mike Dunleavy added 17 and the Warriors hung on to snap the Kings' 14-game home winning streak, beating Sacramento 90-83 Sunday night for their sixth victory in their last eight games against their Northern California rivals.
Richardson added 16 points for the Warriors, who never trailed but blew a 16-point lead in the second half before winning for the fifth time in seven games overall. Richardson struggled all night with 5-for-19 shooting, but hit a 3-pointer with 1:08 to play and added two free throws in the final minute.
