During the young season, the Golden State Warriors have had three different chances to extend a winning streak beyond two games. After wins against the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs, the Warriors are in a similar situation on Thursday night against the New York Knicks. On the second leg of a home back-to-back, a win over the Knicks would give Golden State their first three-game winning streak of the season.
Standing in the way is Tom Thibodeau’s new-look Knicks. Similar to the Warriors, the Knicks are carrying a two-game winning streak heading to the Bay Area. In recent wins over the Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics, New York’s defense has limited opponents to under 85 points in both contests.
After scoring a career-high 20 points against the Spurs on Wednesday, James Wiseman will suit up for another tough matchup against New York’s frontcourt. Julius Randle is coming off back-to-back double-double performances, scoring 20 or more points in both games.
