Previously with the Warriors:
Golden State suffered their worst loss of the season on Thursday night after the Memphis Grizzlies destroyed them, 144-93. Despite the four days of rest between games, the Warriors came out flat and had no answer for a Grizzlies team that shot 27-of-48 from the three-point line and 54.1% percent from the field. Andrew Wiggins was the only Warriors’ starter to show up offensively, leading the unit with 19 points.

What to watch for tonight:
The Warriors look to shake off their last performance with tonight’s matchup against the Timberwolves. They hope to get better results from their new starting lineup which featured the team’s latest trade acquisition, Dennis Schroder. Head coach Steve Kerr immediately inserted Schroder into the starting unit but his debut did not go as planned as he finished the night with just five points on 2-of-12 shooting from the field.
It wasn’t just Schroder either. Stephen Curry only had two points on the night and failed to record a single field goal for the first time in his career during a game in which he played at least 12 minutes. The starting backcourt was a combined 2-of-19, including 0-of-10 from the three-point line.
Steph Curry believes Warriors will get out of this slump. He says the vibes are better than they were last season when they lost by 52 at Boston in March. He says Warriors are better than how they’ve been playing of late. pic.twitter.com/LICabYpkIy

The Warriors are 2-9 in their last 11 games, however, their last win did come against the Timberwolves earlier this month. It’s a perfect opportunity to break out of this slump once again, but Golden State simply needs to get much better production from their starters if they want to win.
Enjoy the game Dub Nation. GO WARRIORS!!!
