The defending NBA champions, the Golden State Warriors, have struggled in the few games they have played so far. Coming into the season, the Warriors were the favorites to win the West and run it back to the NBA finals. However, they have massively underperformed so far and are sitting at the bottom of the Western conference after two weeks of regular season action. The Golden State Warriors, led by the 2022 Finals MVP Stephen Curry, are currently on a four-game losing streak.

According to a recent report, The Warriors will be resting the 2x NBA MVP, Stephen Curry, for the next game. Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, and Andrew Wiggins will also not play for the same reason. The team’s starting line-up accounting for the absence of the above players is unknown yet. But many believe Jordan Poole will undoubtedly be leading the attack tonight for the Warriors. However, beating the Zion Williamson-led New Orleans Pelicans will be a tall ask from the young squad.

The Pelicans have been performing well so far. Zion Williamson is having an exceptional season. Zion’s dominance and the contributions of Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum have made the Pelicans a force to reckon with in the West.
