The Golden State Warriors are in desperate need of a win. Having dropped back to back games at home, the Warriors will try their luck on the road on Friday night against the Chicago Bulls.
The Warriors have released their injury report for this game, and Steph Curry is not listed, meaning he is available to play. Curry’s struggles recently have contributed to the team’s struggles, as he has certainly not been himself. That said, Curry has proven the ability to bounce back from small slumps, and will look to do that in this game.
While the Bulls have been one of the more disappointing teams in the NBA the last couple seasons, they have won three-straight games coming into this one against the Warriors. It seems unlikely that this small hot streak will change Chicago’s plan as it pertains to the trade deadline, but they are entering this game playing much better basketball than they have for most of this season.
The Warriors enter this game 17-20, sitting a full game back of a play-in spot. Things haven’t been this bad in Golden State in a while, as all signs point towards the front office shaking things up at the trade deadline to turn this season around. For now, the Warriors are rolling with what they have, and will look to get a win on Friday night.
