The Golden State is currently red! The team’s fortune has taken a severe hit for the dub nation as their hopes to recover from the brilliant start of 2024 continue to suffer. The Lakers’ loss appalled even Stephen Curry; he learned their season record was 1-20 when trailing after three quarters. And it seems the misery continues to pile on the Warriors, as two players Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga injury update are not positive.
As per Danny Emerman, Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) will be re-evaluated in 2 weeks. Meanwhile, Draymond Green (calf) is day-to-day. The Warriors beat writer explained that Kuminga will begin light individual work this week but won’t return before the trade deadline. For Green, can start partial practice from this week. Truly a start-stop season for the Golden State as they have suffered 6 defeats in the last 10. But the issues are off-court as well.
The addition of Dennis Schroder didn’t work out the way they would have liked. So the Warriors front office is working overtime to add another meaningful piece to the team. Marc Stein reported that the Warriors are the front runners for the Bulls center Nikola Vucevic, however, even that deal is in limbo.

The two teams currently have different opinions on the draft capital required to complete the deal. The Bulls want a first-round pick in the potential trade, which the Warriors are not willing to oblige. Apart from this, the golden boy of the dub nation has had an average season of his own. Curry is self-aware of his struggles and admitted to playing better.
It’s time for Chef Curry to cook a recipe of success for the Warriors
In the loss to LeBron James and co., the Baby-faced Assassin scored zero points in the second half. On the other hand, Bron and Anthony Davis dropped 32 points in the second half and 61 points in total. Curry did not have the right scoring boots, which resulted in his worst performances.

He scored only 13 points on 4 of 17 shooting from the field. During the post-game conference, the 4x NBA champion was very cognizant of his performance. “I just got to play better. Any game where I play like that, it’s going to be hard for us to win.” The loss currently puts the Warriors in the 11th position with a 22-23 record.
At the age of 36, he has reiterated about competing again for the championship. But knows time is not on his side. So, the front office would have to find better ways to deal with the situation.
