OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Stephen Curry missed a long 3-pointer to tie it with 5.3 seconds left and the Golden State Warriors suffered their first home defeat in more than 14 months, losing 109-106 to the Boston Celtics on Friday night to snap an NBA-record 54-game winning streak in the regular season at Oracle Arena.

That included 36 straight home wins to start this season. Golden State hadn't lost at home since a 113-111 overtime defeat to the Bulls on Jan. 27, 2015.

Isaiah Thomas made a driving layup with 8.3 seconds left on the way to 22 points for Boston.

Shaun Livingston hit two free throws with 46.9 seconds left to get Golden State within 105-103, then Draymond Green wrestled the ball away from Amir Johnson moments later for his sixth steal and Golden State called timeout. But Green lost the ball with 23.9 seconds left.
