Steph Curry scored 29 points on his 29th birthday, Klay Thompson added 28 and the Golden State Warriors used a frenetic fourth-quarter rally to snap a three-game skid and beat the Philadelphia 76ers 106-104 on Tuesday night.

Croatian Dario Saric intentionally missed his second free throw with 2.6 seconds remaining to try to give the Sixers one last shot, but Curry secured the ball. Saric finished the game with 25 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks and 6 turnovers, French Timothe Luwawu-Cabarro added 10 points as a starter and Spaniard Sergio Rodriguez had 3 points and 3 assists. For the Warriors, Georgian Zaza Pachulia had 2 points and 5 rebounds.
