In the face of Steph Curry’s struggles, the Golden State Warriors were defeated 141-105. In addition to six assists, one rebound, and one steal, the two-time MVP finished with 15 points on 4-13 shooting. Amazingly, the crowd on Golden State’s home court jeered at them.

The Warriors are now 17–20 and ranked 12th in the Western Conference as a result of the loss. They trail the Houston Rockets (18-18) by 1.5 games in the race for the tenth berth. Golden State would have been eliminated in the play-in tournament if it had started today.

Draymond Green was not available for the Warriors because he is currently increasing his conditioning following a 12-game suspension. In addition, Chris Paul is still recovering from a hand injury. Steph Curry’s load has only increased after the Dubs lost two of their most outspoken leaders.

The response has definitely increased the pressure on Golden State’s executive management to add players to the roster. It’s anyone’s guess how General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. achieves that. Curry is definitely not requesting assistance in a subtle manner.

Before the Warriors’ game against the New Orleans Pelicans, Steve Kerr, the coach of the Warriors, made an intriguing comment about Steph Curry. The “weight” the point guard must bear for the team, according to him, has been “unfair.”

He’s been contributing, “Chef Curry.” His averages for the season are 27.1 points, 4.6 assists, and 4.3 rebounds. With everyone’s concentration going toward defense, Curry has made 45.0% of his shots, including 39.8% from deep.

The supporting cast of Golden State must do better. Klay Thompson, who averages 17.2 points per game, trails only Curry in scoring, but the shooting guard has had a turbulent career. On the defensive end, most teams look for him.

All of Andrew Wiggins’ former All-Star qualities have vanished. His scoring average of 11.9 points per game is by far the lowest of his career. His lowest scoring average prior to this season came during his rookie year with the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he averaged 16.9 points per game.
