The Golden State Warriors just can’t stop and won’t stop winning.

With a 135-116 victory over the Phoenix Suns on the road on Friday night, the Warriors extended their NBA-best win streak to start a season to 17 games, advancing to 17-0.

Stephen Curry, who didn’t even play the fourth quarter, poured in 41 points, hitting nine three-pointers. Draymond Green recorded a triple-double with 14 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Leandro Barbosa added 21 points, the first time he’s gone over 20 points in a Warriors uniform.

The result of this game was never in doubt from the beginning. The Warriors jumped out to an 8-0 lead. Curry made five three-pointers in the first quarter alone, finishing with 19 points and six assists in just the one quarter.

Along with a season-high 44 first quarter points, Golden State made an NBA-record 15 three-pointers in the first half to take a 75-57 lead at halftime.

The Suns cut the Warriors’ lead to as little as 10 at 67-57 in the second, but the Warriors ended the half with an 8-0 run to take control. The Warriors broke the century mark with two minutes to spare in the third quarter, taking a 100-77 lead on a pair of Shaun Livingston free throws.

The Warriors finished off the fourth quarter and a convincing win on the road to continue their improbable start, with 135 points a team high on the season.

Next up will be the Kings at home on Saturday on the back-end of a back-to-back.
