Steph Curry had 33 points, eight rebounds and six assists for Golden State. DeMarcus Cousins and Klay Thompson each scored 21. Kevin Durant took the night off, missing his first game of the season.

The Warriors have lost back-to-back games for the first time since December and have lost four of their last six.

Orlando trailed 94-92 until Gordon hit a 3-pointer with 1:41 left to give the Magic their first lead of the fourth quarter. D.J. Augustin followed that up with a layup, Ross padded the lead with a couple free throws and the Warriors missed several open shots down the stretch.

The Warriors led by 13 early in the fourth quarter, but Ross hit three 3-pointers during a 17-4 Magic run that tied the game at 89 with 4:21 left in the game.

Draymond Green gave the Warriors their first lead of the night when he finished a fast-break layup with 6:09 left in the third. That was part of a 18-3 run that put Golden State ahead 76-66.

Orlando led the entire first half, and Gordon's jumper at the buzzer gave the Magic a 59-51 halftime lead.
