After snapping a three-game losing streak against the Philadelphia 76ers, the Golden State Warriors found themselves back in trouble with a 95-113 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night. The defeat added to their struggles, marking their 13th loss in the last 17 games and dropping them to the 10th spot in the Western Conference standings.
The Warriors’ ongoing issues have affected the entire team. Even superstar Stephen Curry acknowledged their struggles in a candid post-game press conference, sharing a blunt assessment of their current state.
“I can say we’re very mid right now, which is very average. And I think we understand that better days can be ahead,” Curry said.

“You’re not in that big of a hole to watch the converse. If you look at the standings, you go on a five- or six-game run,” Curry added.
Curry scored only 11 points, had two rebounds, and three assists in the loss. Warriors stars like Draymond Green and Buddy Hield also had a quiet night, both scoring only two points against the top opponents of the Eastern Conference.
