SACRAMENTO — Stephen Curry participated in the pregame huddle via Facetime, a bespectacled Draymond Green took on the role of coach in a navy blue sweatsuit and Jimmy Butler was nowhere to be found Wednesday night inside the Golden1 Center.

Without their three biggest stars, two of whom did not make the short trip up I-80, the Warriors ran out of steam against a Sacramento Kings team also playing at less than full strength. Golden State raced out to a double-digit lead before halftime but watched it slip away in a 121-116 loss.

Will Richard and Moses Moody each scored 28 points, and Jonathan Kuminga added 24, but that was no match for Russell Westbrook’s triple-double (23 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists) and five other Kings who finished in double figures.
