The Warriors have a chance to move into the 8-seed for the play-in tournament, but with Stephen Curry and Draymond Green sitting out against the Utah Jazz to rest, it appears Golden State is preparing to move forward as the 9- or 10-seed.
Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Gary Payton II were inactive for the
The Golden State Warriors lost to the New Orleans Pelicans 114-109 on Friday night. It was a very tough loss considering the implications it had on the standings — with a win, the Dubs would have controlled their fate, and been in position to earn the No. 8 seed in the Play-In Tournament with a win over the Utah Jazz on Sunday. Instead, they couldn’t overcome their turnover issues — or the Pelicans’ unbelievable three-point shooting — and their fourth-quarter comeback fell just short. I don’t...
Just two years removed from their last NBA championship title, the Golden State Warriors have missed the playoffs. This is now the third time in the last five years that the Warriors have not made the postseason, with the team failing to qualify after losing to the Sacramento Kings in the first round of the play-in tournament.Frankly, it wasn't even close. While the Warriors had a shot thanks to qualifying for the play-in tournament, they were routed 118-94 by the Kings. Klay Thompson failed to...
We could have witnessed the last game of Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green playing together on the same team. The NBA's most dangerous trio could have reached its end. The Warriors have been eliminated from the NBA playoffs after losing to the Sacramento Kings in a crucial play-in game. All those moments of glory, relentless battles with LeBron James, championship rings, extraordinary records, could have come to an end. The...
No one enjoyed the postseason downfall of the Warriors on Tuesday night more than Phoenix Suns big man Jusuf Nurkic. Nurkic was flagrantly hit in the head by Draymond Green on on Dec. 12, 2023, at Footprint Center in Phoenix — leading to an ejection and eventual indefinite suspension for Green that required him getting counseling before he could return to the court — and then continued to feud off the court online throughout the season after Green returned from suspension in the middle of...

The Golden State Warriors are getting ready to face the Portland Trail Blazers in a very important Thursday night game. To an extent, the Warriors control their own fate right now — if they win out, they’ll jump at least the Los Angeles Lakers in the standings. So needless to say, a victory in their final road game of the regular season is very important. But it won’t be easy, as the Warriors are down a pair of starters. In between Tuesday’s win and Thursday afternoon, Draymond Green and Klay...
Even those closest to the Golden State Warriors are confused by how the play-in works — and explaining it almost made Draymond Green late to practice. On his eponymous podcast, Green started his Monday episode with a preview of Tuesday’s Warriors-Kings matchup by explaining the play-in situation. He included a conversation he had with his mother-in-law Monday to illustrate how complicated the whole thing is: “I had a conversation with her that almost made me late for practice today,” Green said,...
Stephen Curry and Draymond Green didn’t play for the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center on Sunday during their 123-116 victory over the Utah Jazz in their regular-season finale. A far more important game looms Tuesday for which their best will be all but required. The Warriors rolled past the Jazz to secure the Western Conference’s No. 10 seed without Curry and Green, who were scratched pregame with minor ailments to better prepare for their Tuesday matchup with the ninth-seeded Sacramento...
Jusuf Nurkić got the last laugh in his rivalry with Draymond Green this season. The Phoenix Suns center trolled Green after the Golden State Warriors' Play-in
