Recent Trends


The Warriors have shown resilience and skill in their recent games. Despite a tough loss against the Dallas Mavericks where they scored 133 points to Dallas' 143, their performance was notable for its high scoring and aggressive play. The team demonstrated their ability to rack up points quickly and from various positions on the court. In another recent game against the Houston Rockets, they narrowly missed victory by one point (90-91), highlighting their competitive edge even in tightly contested matches.


Their victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves by a score of 114-106 showcased their offensive capabilities and defensive improvements. This win was characterized by significant contributions from both starters and bench players, indicating depth in their roster that could prove crucial against Memphis.

Key Factors


One of Golden State's strengths has been their three-point shooting accuracy which stood at an impressive 50 percent during their clash with Dallas. Additionally, they've demonstrated an ability to capitalize on turnovers, scoring 30 points off turnovers in that game alone.


However, maintaining defensive solidity will be critical as they allowed over 130 points in two out of these three games. Improving defensive rebounds and minimizing opponent possessions will be areas for potential focus if they aim to contain Memphis' offensive threats.
