The Golden State Warriors are back in action less than 24 hours after a tough loss to the Miami Heat, and they’ll get some easier competition this time: the reeling Toronto Raptors, who recently traded away Norman Powell and are without the injured Kyle Lowry.
But the Warriors have their own issues to overcome, namely the fact that their best player, Steph Curry, won’t be playing in the game due to discomfort in his inflamed tailbone.
If you’re looking for a reason for optimism, the Warriors beat the Raptors earlier in the season, 106-105. And while Curry technically did play in that game, he had one of the worst shooting games of his career, going 2-for-16 from the field and 1-for-10 from beyond the arc.
So it can be done.
