The Golden State Warriors were in need of a bounce-back victory. They were coming back from a quick trip down the coast to Inglewood and suffered a wild 103-102 defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers.

To start the upcoming eight-game homestand, the Warriors were facing off against Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks came into this game 4-1 since the Greek Freak returned from injury and were posing a real threat to start another Warriors losing streak.

Alas, it was a great team effort and solid all-around performance from the Dubs, as they led for most of the game and closed out a 120-113 victory. The win moves them back to two games above .500 as they try to make a run over the next handful of home contests.

The Warriors' all-around play boiled everything down to the basics and kept self-inflicted wounds in check. 31 of the Warriors' 44 field goals were off assists, and they had just 9 turnovers — the second game in a row they've had less than double-digit turnovers.

Steph Curry talked about keeping the turnovers down, especially since it was a major issue that plagued them in multiple different losses earlier this year.

"For me and Draymond, especially with the way that we play, it's just being sure about your passes. We're going to take some risks — I'm gonna throw a behind-the-back pass, I'm gonna throw a full-court pass — but throughout the meat of the game, it's trying to play under control."

Curry also related how taking care of the ball can translate to winning basketball.

"As coach (Steve) Kerr would say, hit singles, let everything work itself out with good decision-making and fundamental basketball mixed with our tendency to have a little chaos."

The Warriors average the third-most turnovers in the league at 15.9 per game, but haven't had more than 16 in a game since the disaster in Toronto just after Christmas.

Curry led the way once again with 31 points, 6 rebounds, and 7 assists, shooting 57% from the field and supplying a dagger "Night Night" shot in the final 30 seconds.

However, this game saw not Jimmy Butler as the second-leading scorer, but De'Anthony Melton.

Melton had been struggling to shoot the ball since returning from ACL rehab earlier this season — he was averaging just 8 points a game on 34% from the field and 22% from three. Considering Melton was a career 37% three-point shooter coming into this season, the expectation was always that he'd finally hit a groove, and that may have happened on Wednesday.

Melton dropped a season-best 22 points on 8-12 shooting from the field and 5-9 from beyond the arc. Melton was integral in keeping the Warriors' offense flowing and cashed in multiple catch-and-shoot threes that were otherwise rimming out earlier this season.

Al Horford also had a great all-around game, contributing 8 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 blocks in just 19 minutes. Horford's minutes have been heavily controlled, and he's dealt with multiple injuries, but his play as of late has been very promising, especially considering his career-low averages across the board this season. 

The Warriors will look to take this momentum into a Friday night matchup with their rivals from up the I-80: the Sacramento Kings.
