The Golden State Warriors face the Washington Wizards this Friday at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California. The Golden State Warriors will enter the game riding high after a recent victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Stephen Curry played the role of hero in the win, nailing a crucial three-pointer in the final minute of the fourth quarter to secure the win.
Curry will once again lead the charge against the Wizards, aiming to keep the Warriors on their winning streak. In his standout performance against Minnesota, Curry recorded 31 points, eight assists, and one steal. Throughout the season, he has been the team’s top performer, averaging 22.9 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game.
However, the Warriors are dealing with several injury concerns ahead of Friday’s game. Jonathan Kuminga is ruled out due to an ankle injury, while Kyle Anderson is sidelined with a hamstring issue. Additionally, Draymond Green’s availability is questionable as he deals with back soreness.
The Wizards are also managing injuries within their roster. Saddiq Bey is out with a knee injury, while Marvin Bagley and Malcolm Brogdon are both listed as questionable due to knee and foot issues, respectively.
Stephen Curry Pushes Back On “Average Team” Label Amid Warriors’ Struggles
Following the Warriors’ win over the Timberwolves on Wednesday, Stephen Curry made it clear he’s not satisfied with mediocrity. Curry firmly dismissed any suggestion that he’s content with the Warriors being labeled as average.
“Anyone who thinks I’m OK being on an average basketball team is insane. Take whatever I said; I still stand on it. But that doesn’t mean that you’re not in a situation where you’re trying to get better and make appropriate moves that help you do that,” Curry said.
