The good news for the Golden State Warriors is they have their best player back in action.

The bad news is a five-game win streak is over after the Warriors fell 113-105 to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday at Crypto.com Arena.

Curry led Golden State with 27 points but was just 8-of-20 from the field (5-of-13 from 3) after a slow start. He scored 19 of his points in the fourth quarter.

But his late surge wasn't enough to overcome a 39-point, 8-rebound, 6-assist performance by Anthony Davis to lead the Lakers.

Curry had missed the last 11 games after suffering partial tears to his lower left leg in a Feb. 4 game against the Dallas Mavericks.

It interrupted what's been a stellar season for the 34-year-old former two-time MVP. He was averaging 29.4 points, 6.3 rebounds and 6.4 assists while shooting 49.5% from the field and 42.7% from 3-point range entering Sunday.

The Warriors have had an up-and-down season coming off a championship victory last summer. They're now 34-31 and fifth place in the Western Conference.

This is despite Curry missing extended time. In addition to this latest month-long absence, he missed 11 games earlier in the season with a shoulder injury.

If Curry can stay healthy the rest of the way, the defending champs have a shot to climb the standings and make another run at a title.
