Advice and prediction

While Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum won’t be on the floor due to injury, still expect fireworks at Chase Center on Wednesday night. It starts and ends with the Golden State Warriors All-Star point guard.

After drilling seven triples against the Magic on Monday, Curry only needs 16 3-pointers to snap Ray Allen’s all-time record. While the idea of hitting 16 jumpers from beyond the arc seems unbelievable, Curry could have the firepower to get it done. Along with rewriting the record books for most made 3-pointers, he would have to break his teammate Klay Thompson’s record for most made triples in a single game (14).

If Curry can’t bury 16 3-pointers on Wednesday, his record-breaking performance likely won’t come in front of his home crowd in San Francisco. The Warriors will head on a five-game road trip after Wednesday’s contest.

Luckily for Curry, the Blazers sit at the bottom of the NBA in defensive rating at 112.9. In addition, the Blazers have lost three consecutive games, including a blowout 145-117 loss to the Boston Celtics.

With Curry letting it rip from long distance and the Blazers boasting a shaky defense, over 215.5 is the bet to keep an eye on during Wednesday’s contest.

Prediction: Warriors 127, Trail Blazers 103

Before the Golden State Warriors finish the preseason slate against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday, here is how to watch the contest and everything else you need to know.

After four straight wins, the Golden State Warriors will cap off the preseason with a tilt against the Portland Trail Blazers at San Francisco’s Chase Center.

The Warriors opened the preseason against the Trail Blazers with a victory at the Moda Center, 121-107.

Jordan Poole burst onto the scene against the Blazers to start the preseason, scoring a red-hot 30 points against Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. Since his impressive performance against the Trail Blazers, Poole has shown no signs of slowing down in the preseason, leading Golden State to an undefeated record.

After missing a preseason tilt against the Lakers on Friday, Steph Curry and Draymond Green are expected to suit up against the Blazers in the preseason finale.

Along with the final dress rehearsal for Curry, Poole and Green, Friday’s preseason tilt will be the last chance for players competing for Golden State’s final roster spot to prove they belong on the team for the start of the regular season.

Warriors vs. Trail Blazers: Jordan Poole drops 30 points on way to win in preseason opener, 121-107

Jordan Poole dropped 30 points on the way to helping lead the Warriors to a victory over the Trail Blazers in the preseason opener, 121-107. Here are three things to know from Monday’s contest:

On Monday night at the Moda Center, the Golden State Warriors’ 2021-22 campaign got officially underway with their preseason opener against Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers.

Shortly after the opening whistle, it didn’t take long for potential breakout candidate Jordan Poole to get going. With the chance to start alongside Steph Curry, the third-year guard didn’t mess around. In the first four minutes, Poole launched four triples, drilling two from beyond the arc.

In only three-quarters of action, Poole led the game in scoring, tallying 30 points on 10-of-17 shooting from the floor. The Michigan product caught fire from deep, hitting seven triples on 13 attempts from deep.

With Poole heating up and 13 points each from Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins, the Warriors went on to cruise to a 121-107 victory over the Trail Blazers to start the preseason.

Here are three other things to know from Monday’s contest:

Otto Porter Jr.

With Poole in the starting lineup, the Warriors will need someone to provide a scoring boost off the bench. On Monday, newly signed veteran wing Otto Porter Jr. answered the bell.

Porter Jr. tallied 19 points on 5-of-9 shooting from the floor with four rebounds and two steals in 18 minutes off the bench. Porter Jr. drilled four 3-pointers on seven attempts from deep.

Letting it fly

Against the Trail Blazers, the Warriors didn’t fear the 3-point line. Steve Kerr’s offense jacked 69 3-pointers on Monday night, hitting 24 from downtown.

Poole led the way with seven makes; Porter Jr. followed with four. Curry and Mychal Mulder each buried three 3-pointers. Andrew Wiggins, Nemanja Bjelica, Avery Bradley, Damion Lee and Draymond Green each added triples during the contest.

Rookie debuts

Monday night served as the preseason debuts for new draft picks Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody. However, it was a quiet night for the rookie pairing.

Kuminga recorded 11 minutes off the bench, notching five points, two rebounds and a steal. Moody went scoreless in nine minutes, recording two rebounds and two assists.

The rookie tandem will get the chance for more playing time on Wednesday in front of Golden State’s home fans at Chase Center when the Denver Nuggets come to the Bay Area for another preseason contest.
