Suns eliminate Warriors

The Warriors' season came to a disappointing conclusion in Phoenix as the Suns' stifling defense limited Stephen Curry to just 17 points.

Draymond Green was ejected in the final minute after a hard foul on Devin Booker, punctuating a frustrating night for the veteran Golden State squad.

The Suns now advance to a first-round series against the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder.

Following the loss, Warriors coach Steve Kerr acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding his future, noting that coaching tenures often have 'expiration dates.'
