The at-time unstoppable Curry has taken 561 postseason shots from beyond the arc, while that number sits at 451 for Thompson, who recently joined an exclusive three-point related club, taking their total to 1,012. And what’s […]

Golden State Warriors star Jordan Poole had a very interesting response after being asked a seemingly innocent question pertaining to the “chaos” within the team. When prompted with a query about how the veterans on the squad have “created a sense of chaos” in the squad, Poole appears to have decided to dig up his […]

Every time Kevin Durant leaves an NBA team, he incurs the wrath and criticism of social media, and even analysts. There is the narrative that he cannot win as the unquestionable top guy of a franchise. That started when he famously joined the Golden State Warriors in 2016. But there was still plenty of chatter […]

It was reported on Thursday that Andrew Wiggins is now expected to make his much-awaited return to action for the Golden State Warriors on Sunday in their Game 1 showdown against the Sacramento Kings.

Andrew Wiggins has been ramping up his work in practice of late as he looks to make his highly-anticipated return to action following a two-month-long personal absence from the Golden State Warriors. Despite returning to the team in the final few games of the regular season, Wiggins was unable to suit up as he continued […]

The playoffs are finally here, with the reigning champions rounding into form to mount a legitimate title defense at exactly the right time. But just because the Golden State Warriors finished the regular season playing their best basketball all year, are at last full-strength and drew their ideal postseason path doesn’t mean they’re getting out […]

Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry reminds Snoop Dogg most of Kobe Bryant, the rapper and actor told Stephen A. Smith on Thursday. “That’s a hard question because I don’t really see nobody with that, you know, killer instinct. The closest that I say would be Steph Curry,” the legendary artist explained. “Because Steph Curry […]

It looks like Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins is trending in the right direction as he looks to return to the team in time for the playoffs.

Some people are already calling the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings a rivalry ahead of their playoffs meeting. However, while Mike Brown understands the hype surrounding the match-up, he doesn’t want people to call it a rivalry yet. Brown does hope that it will turn into one, though, especially since it is good for the […]

A Twitter beef has escalated the Washington Wizards’ Kyle Kuzma and the Brooklyn Nets’ Spencer Dinwiddie, and Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has made it clear whose side he’s picking. Earlier in the day, Green had this reaction when Kuzma came at Dinwiddie about the thing people always want to bring up for the […]

Although Andrew Wiggins’ status for Game 1 of the first-round series in the 2023 NBA Playoffs against the Sacramento Kings remains seemingly up in the air, it appears that the Golden State Warriors forward is likely to make his much-awaited return to action on Saturday.

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green firmly believes LeBron James and the no. 7 seed Los Angeles Lakers have a legitimate chance to pull off an upset against the no. 2 seed Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the 2023 NBA Playoffs. In the latest episode of his podcast, Green noted that the Lakers […]

The Golden State Warriors are finally full-strength at just the right time.

Steve Kerr has the […]

With Los Angeles’ win on Tuesday night, LeBron James and the Lakers were the final piece of the California puzzle.

Both the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies have some work to do before resuming basketball’s most heated rivalry under the playoff spotlight. The reigning champs are heavy favorites in the first round against the upstart Sacramento Kings, but hardly incapable of falling to DeAaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis and company in a battle for Northern […]

The Houston Rockets weren’t expected to have a good 2022-23 campaign, and considering how they finished with a 22-60 record, it’s safe to say they didn’t. While they will land a high draft pick in the upcoming 2023 NBA Draft, head coach Stephen Silas found himself without a job at the season’s end, as the […]

The Golden State Warriors aren’t only entering the playoffs playing by far their best basketball of the season.

Warriors forward Draymond Green added a bit of fuel to the fire in his ongoing beef with Memphis Grizzlies man Dillon Brooks. The pair have gone back-and-forth in recent months with Green essentially annihilating Brooks on his podcast last month in response to the latter’s criticism of him. Brooks would get his revenge on the […]

It’s time for war. After an up-and-down regular season, the Golden State Warriors achieved the first goal in defending the title: making it to the NBA playoffs. Sure, they would prefer to be higher than the sixth spot they’re in. However, considering how the rest of the year went, Golden State feels happy skipping the […]

Having not made the playoffs since the 2005-06 season, the Sacramento Kings appeared to have their work cut out working their way into the postseason after winning just 30 games last year, even with De’Aaron Fox, AKA ‘Mr. Clutch’, and Domantas Sabonis leading the charge. Throughout the course of this season, however, they’ve proven their […]

With the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings set to face each other in the first round of the 2023 playoffs, fans and experts alike couldn’t help but compare the two teams.

The Rudy Gobert punching incident has been a content gift for Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green.

Just because the Golden State Warriors, unsurprisingly, open as clear favorites in the first round of the playoffs hardly means the Sacramento Kings are pushovers. Mike Brown’s squad put up the highest offensive rating ever in 2022-23, its 118.6 points per 100 possessions racing past the rest of the league. DeAaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis […]

Ticket prices are unsurprisingly high for the Sacramento Kings’ first round playoff series against the Golden State Warriors.
