Dennis Schroder led the way with 31 points and the Brooklyn Nets rallied from 18 points down in the third quarter on the second night of a back-to-back set to stun the Golden State Warriors 128-120 in San Francisco on Monday night.

Schroder sank four of Brooklyn’s 20 3-pointers.

Cam Thomas bombed in three 3-pointers among his 23 points as the Nets used 20-for-45 accuracy (44.4 percent) from beyond the arc to beat Golden State one night after surprising the Sacramento Kings in the California capital.

Stephen Curry put up a team-high 28 points for the Warriors, who lost a second straight game for the first time this season.

Attempting to rebound from a Saturday loss at San Antonio, the Warriors seemed to be taking control midway through the third quarter when a four-point play by Curry and an interior hoop by Trayce Jackson-Davis gave the hosts an 86-68 lead.

But the Nets found the energy to outscore the hosts 60-34 the rest of the way, including 41-28 in the fourth period.

All nine Nets players hit a 3-pointer. Jalen Wilson joined Thomas with three as part of an 18-point game, while Ziaire Williams (19 points), Shake Milton (13), Trendon Watford (eight) and Keon Johnson (eight) had two apiece.

Curry buried eight of his 16 3-point attempts for the Warriors, who hit 19 threes on 46 attempts (41.3 percent).

A big difference for the Nets came at the free-throw line, where they made 26 of 30, while Golden State was just 11 of 17.

Thomas (8-for-8) and Schroder (7-for-7) led the Nets’ foul-line assault.

Williams, a former Stanford star celebrating a homecoming, also found time for a game-high 10 rebounds plus four assists. Schroder had a game-high-tying seven assists and grabbed five rebounds.

Andrew Wiggins backed Curry with 18 points for the Warriors, while Moses Moody had 15 and Lindy Waters III contributed 13.

Golden State’s Gary Payton II chipped in with a team-high nine rebounds to go with eight points, four assists and two steals. Draymond Green tied Curry for team-high assist honors with seven to complement seven rebounds and six points.
