The Warriors have only won 1 of their last 5 games! Curry is expected to return to support and strive to avenge the Pacers at home

Basketball

The Warriors have been in poor form recently, losing 4 of the past 5 games and only defeated the Suns at home. In the last away game against the Nuggets, Curry was ill and absent, and the team's offense was in a sluggish state. Butler scored 16 points on 12 of 41 three-pointers. In the end, they lost 104-129 and suffered a 2-game losing streak. The Warriors currently have a record of 5 wins and 5 losses, temporarily ranking eighth in the Western Conference.

In the pre-game injury report, Curry was upgraded to doubtful, which means he is likely to make a comeback. He did not play in the team's past two losses. Curry's performance this season is still outstanding, averaging 26.8 points and 4.3 assists per game, and shooting 38.9% from three-point range. The Warriors' offense still relies more on outside shooting, averaging 16 three-pointers per game, the fourth most in the league. In addition, Kuminga has made good progress this season, averaging 16.2 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, and he is more focused on the game.

The Pacers' performance this season has been very poor. After Haliburton was unable to play, I thought they would become worse, but I didn't expect it to be so bad. They started with a 5-game losing streak, and then suffered a 3-game losing streak after defeating the Warriors. The Pacers currently have a record of only 1 win and 8 losses, ranking second to last in the Eastern Conference, only higher than the Wizards.

Without Haliburton, the Pacers' offensive firepower is greatly reduced, averaging only 110.3 points per game. The field goal percentage is only 40.2%, and the three-point shooting percentage is 30%, both of which are the worst in the league. In terms of the lineup, in addition to Haliburton's absence, Marcelin, Toppin and McConnell are also unable to play, and the overall strength has further declined. Siakam is also isolated here, averaging 24.3 points, 7.9 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game.

This is the second time the two teams have met this season. In the first game, the Pacers defeated the Warriors at home and won their first win of the season. The Warriors have only one goal when they return to home this time, and that is to complete revenge. They have not lost at home this season and have a record of 4 wins and 0 losses.
