The Golden State Warriors lost their fifth straight game when they fell to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday, Nov. 16. Steve Kerr‘s team is working through a rough patch, with multiple players struggling to perform at their usual levels. The game was also the first of Draymond Green‘s five-game suspension following his ejection against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, and Chris Paul have all experienced slow starts to the season. As such, there is currently an over-reliance on Steph Curry to carry the offensive workload. Yet, the veteran guard has missed his team’s last two games, forcing other players to step up in his absence.
Golden State will get an opportunity to get some immediate payback against the Thunder when the two teams face off on Saturday, Nov. 18. However, before we look ahead, we should take a closer look at the Warriors latest loss and see which players were able to make a statistical impact.
