Saturday night provided a brilliant game. The 119-114 Warriors loss featured 47 points from Stephen Curry and 44 from Jayson Tatum, with both teams trading blows into the final seconds.
The Warriors are without James Wiseman for the remainder of the year. Wiseman underwent season-ending surgery to repair a right meniscal tear on Thursday, ending his rookie campaign prematurely.
It’s a win streak, folks. With a 119-101 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Warriors, who seemed hapless so recently, have now rattled off four-straight wins are back to .500 at 28-28.
On the heels of and one of the most demoralizing losses of the year, the Golden State Warriors came out firing in a surprising 116-107 win over the red hot Nuggets at Chase Center on Monday.
That’s the absolute last thing the Warriors wanted to hear. Just as rookie center James Wiseman seemed to really be finding his groove and using a simplified game to create confidence for himself, it all comes to a brutal, screeching halt.
