The struggling Golden State Warriors (12-7) will try to stop their current 0-4 losing streak when they host the 12-6 Portland Trailblazers.
The Warriors just aren't the same team without Stephen Curry. He is still bound to miss a few games with an injury, and on Friday also got involved in a minor multi-vehicle car crash in Oakland (he was unharmed).
In the Steve Kerr era, the Warriors are 254-47 with Curry, and 22-22 without.
Draymond Green will once again be out as well with his toe injury, so it's up to Durant and Thompson to once again try to carry this team to a win.
The Trailblazers have won 3 of their last 6, so some inconsistency is definitely there. They are averaging 114.2 points per game so far this season, and allowing 110.2 on the other side of the floor. The Warriors overall are 115.4/111.1 but only 98.4/109.8 in their last 5. Their offense just isn't clicking without Curry.
Portland are finally free of injuries, with both Harkless and Seth Curry(Steph's brother) available for tonight.
I don't see the current Warriors team winning this, unless either Durant or Thompson have a monster night. All signs point to the Blazers being favorites here.
Durant has been 2 of 22 from deep in the last 5 games, and is 30% from deep on the season, a new career low.
Taking the Blazers with a small handicap for security.
