While on a three-game win streak under interim head coach Doug Christie, the Kings were without star guard De&#8217;Aaron Fox who had suffered an injury in the contest prior. Unfortunately for Golden State, the night left a sour taste in the mouths&#8217; of supporters.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_07vanugud\">Sacramento handed Golden State its 17th loss of the season by way of a 129-99 victory. The Warriors now sit just a game above .500, as they hang on to their playoff hopes by a thread. With the team yet again struggling outside of Steph Curry, head coach Steve Kerr addressed the situation after the game.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Steve Kerr: \u201cLoss is a loss.
