Former teammates Jordan Poole and Draymond Green have no love lost for each other. In a game between the Washington Wizards and Golden State Warriors on Nov. 4, Poole was seen preventing Green from interacting with any of his current teammates. During a dead ball, Poole separated Green from Wizards rookie Bub Carrington while the […]

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has apparently created a new drama involving himself and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Green recently shared his opinion about the Thunder’s tradition after wins where they surround a teammate being interviewed before breaking into loud barks. It’s a harmless gimmick by the young Thunder, but Green doesn’t see the […]

This early in the season, the Boston Celtics (7-1) and the Cleveland Cavaliers (8-0) look like the top-two contenders in the Eastern conference, while the Golden State Warriors (6-1) have surprised everyone with their surging start without Klay Thompson’s services. On Thursday, the defending champion Celtics will face the Warriors in a rematch of their […]

Oh how different things would be if Draymond Green simply kept his hands to himself in one fateful practice session back in 2022. Instead, Green decided to punch Jordan Poole, creating an awkward locker room setup which eventually led to Poole’s departure from the Golden State Warriors in 2023. Poole’s career seemed to be derailed […]

The Golden State Warriors handled business against the Washington Wizards, 125-112, improving their early-season record to 6-1 thanks to their impressive depth, hot shooting, and smothering team defense. At this point of the season, losing Klay Thompson might not have affected the team at all. Likewise, losing Stephen Curry to an ankle injury for three […]

On Monday night, the Golden State Warriors saw the return of star man Stephen Curry to the lineup following a three-game absence due to an ankle injury. The Warriors traveled to the nation’s capital to face a friend turned foe in Jordan Poole, who has become the leader of a young Washington Wizards squad. In […]

The Golden State Warriors have improved to 6-1 after taking care of business against the Washington Wizards at home, 125-112. In the victory, Stephen Curry returned from an ankle injury to score 24 points, while Buddy Hield poured in 20 and Draymond Green scored 18 points while grabbing eight boards. However, Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski […]

The Golden State Warriors entered Saturday’s action leading the NBA by averaging a whopping 61 bench points per game. Though they fell one point shy of that mind-blowing number while beating the Washington Wizards 125-112, don’t be surprised if the Dubs’ reserves are even more productive going forward given Jonathan Kuminga’s new role. Despite Stephen […]

The Golden State Warriors host the Washington Wizards at Chase Center, hoping to improve their record to 6-1 while the Wizards look to reach .500 and stay afloat in the Eastern conference. Despite losing Klay Thompson in the offseason, the Warriors are looking like one of the best teams in basketball, ranking fourth in the […]

The Golden State Warriors still aren’t quite back at full strength. De’Anthony Melton remains sidelined on Monday in the nation’s capital, dealing with nagging low back pain that caused him to miss most of last season with the Philadelphia 76ers and reared its ugly head again in mid-October amid the Warriors’ exhibition slate. Golden State […]

Even with the departure of four-time NBA Champion and Bay Area icon Klay Thompson, the Golden State Warriors enter the 2024-25 season with renewed hopes that this franchise that has won four of the last ten NBA Titles can once again contend for the sport’s biggest prize. Reasons for hope range from Stephen Curry’s continued […]

After just six games in the 2024-2025 season, Klay Thompson is already loving his new life with the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran guard shared his excitement to be teammates with Luka Doncic on social media in a post that was taken cryptically by fans. Thompson posted a Facebook photo of him and Doncic embracing each […]

What has transpired over the first two weeks of the 2024-25 NBA season with the Golden State Warriors has been nothing short of astonishing. Obviously, a new feel and energy were expected from the Warriors this season with Klay Thompson and Chris Paul departing, but a 5-1 start to the season with the team ranking […]

There was plenty of concern on the injury front surrounding Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry after he twisted his ankle twice in the span of minutes back on October 27 in a loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. Curry has missed the Warriors’ past three games, although Golden State has managed to hold the […]

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green often says what’s on his mind. It’s who the 13-year veteran is, albeit in a message to Jonathan Kuminga during a postgame interview or on his Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis platform. In his latest episode, Draymond discussed a recent back-to-back against All-Star Zion Williamson and the New Orleans […]

The Golden State Warriors have been rolling this season despite an ankle injury to guard Stephen Curry, who has missed the last three games, all of which resulted in Golden State wins. On Saturday evening, the Warriors went up by as many as 31 points against the Houston Rockets before relinquishing that lead but ultimately […]

Still lost amid widespread handwringing on Jonathan Kuminga’s shift to the bench is the specific context that prompted it. The Golden State Warriors’ new-look starters weren’t setting the league ablaze before Steph Curry twice tweaked his left ankle during his 5-1 team’s lone loss of the regular season’s early going, but that big, athletic, defense-first […]

Maybe it’s time we start putting a little more respect on Buddy Hield’s name. In fairness, if Hield continues playing like he has in his first handful of games as a member of the Golden State Warriors, it will be unavoidable because Stephen Curry’s “Splash Buddy” has already made a major splash with the Dubs. […]

The Golden State Warriors never should’ve needed Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga to play hero. They boat raced the Houston Rockets in the first half on Saturday night, using red-hot shooting, suffocating defense and far superior chemistry and cohesion to take a seemingly insurmountable 28-point lead into intermission. The dogged two-way efforts of Tari Eason […]

The departure of Klay Thompson was by far the Golden State Warriors’ biggest story of a truly transformational offseason. His potential defection in free agency loomed over the Dubs throughout 2023-24, tempting the end of an era as rookie Brandin Podziemski established himself as a franchise fixture and despite Stephen Curry and Draymond Green already […]

Looking to continue their red-hot start to the 2024-2025 season, the Golden State Warriors hit the road on Nov. 2 to begin a road trip against the Houston Rockets. Forward Andrew Wiggins has missed the team’s last two games with a lower back strain and is once again on the injury report with guard Stephen […]

The Warriors visit the Rockets to open the NBA Season! The Rockets are an emerging team, while the Warriors have played great despite their new-look roster. It’s time to continue our NBA odds series with a Warriors-Rockets prediction and pick. The Warriors look different without Klay Thompson. Steph Curry is still great, and Andrew Wiggins […]

Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams received a lot of criticism for his hit on Jayson Tatum with Draymond Green being one of his loudest critics. The Golden State Warriors forward was upset with Williams’ handling of the incident after getting ejected from the game with a flagrant two foul. Williams said the hit on Tatum […]

Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has been making good progress and has been cleared to return to segments of practice on Friday evening in Houston, the team released. After missing the last two games with a left peroneal strain, Curry has joined the Warriors for their five-game road trip and is expected to return […]

Stephen Curry will join De’Anthony Melton on the sidelines for a third-straight game as the Golden State Warriors take on the Houston Rockets. Before their first matchup of a tough five-game road trip that begins on Saturday, though, at least the Dubs got some encouraging news regarding Andrew Wiggins. The veteran swingman is listed as […]

The NBA playoffs feature the best players and teams in the world. Although grizzled veterans and superstars usually take the spotlight with championship stakes up for grabs, there are rare moments in NBA history when a rookie takes center stage. Most of the time, rookies are in the playoffs to grab some experience. However, there […]

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has a lofty goal for this year: winning his second NBA Defensive Player of the Year award. Green is considered one of the best defenders in the NBA, with his ability to guard 1-5 and anchor the Warriors’ defense important to the team’s success. But, he’s only won the […]

Amid a swirling NBA rumor mill, Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler has reportedly surfaced as a possible trade target for the Golden State Warriors, a team looking to maximize its championship window with Stephen Curry at the helm. The suggestion comes amid speculation about the Warriors’ willingness to move forward Jonathan Kuminga, as executives believe […]

The Golden State Warriors have been unfortunate on the injury front to begin the 2024-25 season. After winning their first two games in historic fashion, the Warriors saw Stephen Curry twist his ankle twice in the span of around 10 minutes, necessitating a multigame absence. But thus far, even with Curry out, the Warriors swept […]

Just like that, two weeks of the 2024-25 NBA season are gone. Well, I guess it has officially been 10 days of games, but you get the idea. Since the month of November is upon us, the league will begin turning its attention and marketing towards the second-ever battle in the NBA In-Season Tourn… wait […]

Winning the NBA MVP is a major honor, as it crowns the best basketball player of the regular season. However, as of late, NBA MVPs have struggled to convert their regular-season success into the playoffs. In fact, the last NBA MVP to win a championship was back in 2015. As a result, it’s safe to […]

With the Milwaukee Bucks off to a shaky start this season, speculation is mounting around Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the franchise. Since the team’s decision to replace Adrian Griffin with Doc Rivers in January, the Bucks have struggled to find consistency, winning only 20 of their last 46 regular season and postseason games. After a […]

Despite an injury to Stephen Curry sustained earlier in the week, the Golden State Warriors were able to push their record to 4-1 with back to back wins over the New Orleans Pelicans, thanks in large part to the defensive greatness of Draymond Green. While the Pelicans were also shorthanded in the second of the […]

After the Golden State Warriors benched Jonathan Kuminga, it was strange as to why the move was made. Even though he averaged a career-high 16.1 points per game in 26.3 minutes, it didn’t seem to phase Golden State. While Kuminga thought his worth exceeded $30 million, his team begs to differ. Unfortunately, he might suffer […]

It’s been nearly 25 years since Eminem and Dr. Dre collaborated on the Grammy Award winning single Forgot About Dre. This track served as a defiant and momentous return for the 34-year-old Dre. On Wednesday night, Golden State Warriors 34-year-old forward Draymond Green stepped on the floor against Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans and […]

The Los Angeles Clippers new arena has dominated headlines early in the 2024-25 campaign for its innovative design and insane $2 billion price tag. With that kind of money, Clippers owner Steve Ballmer wanted everything to be perfect, especially the popcorn served at the concession stands. Instead of bringing on the same supplier of popped […]

Who needs Andrew Wiggins and De’Anthony Melton, let alone Stephen Curry? The Golden State Warriors definitely do, obviously, to make good on the two-way promise they’ve shown through the first five games of the regular season. Yet for a second straight night against the similarly shorthanded New Orleans Pelicans, Golden State’s unique blend of depth […]

The Golden State Warriors fell deep into a seemingly insurmountable hole. Playing without Stephen Curry as well as Andrew Wiggins and De’Anthony Melton, the Dubs’ exceptional depth was tested early in Tuesday’s game against the New Orleans Pelicans, and every answer they came up with seemed like the wrong one. Golden State had no space […]

Without Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, and De’Anthony Melton on Tuesday night against the New Orleans Pelicans, it seemed like the Golden State Warriors were lining themselves up for a loss. However, Steve Kerr’s group has always been resilient when it comes to injured players through the years, as the Warriors have always held the mantra […]
