Steph Curry and Warriors face an anomaly of a season

Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors are amid an unusual season. Over the past 10 years under coach Steve Kerr, the Warriors, when healthy, haven’t looked so underwhelming. Golden State hasn’t looked the same since their 2023 playoffs second-round loss to the LA Lakers.

 

Andrew Wiggins and Klay Thompson have been a shadow of their All-Star selves, while Draymond Green’s season has been outlined by his suspensions. On the other hand, Curry, after a hot start, flamed out.

Since Christmas, Curry’s averaged 22.1 points and 5.9 assists but shot only 36.2%, including 32.7% from 3 across nine games. Before that, he produced 28.9 ppg on 47/42/93 splits in 27 outings.

When healthy, the Warriors haven’t been three games below .500 after 37 games since 2014, but that’s where they are this year. The Warriors are 12th in the West, seemingly struggling to keep a hold among the top 10 of the standings. Golden State has already had four starting lineup changes because of their poor performance.

It’s unlike them to go through an inconsistent phase and not bounce back immediately, but it is where they find themselves right now. However, the Warriors seemingly showed flashes of brilliance in Friday’s comeback win over the Bulls.

The starters executed their roles well, especially in the second half, turning things around and reminding the league of what a capable force they can be if they find their rhythm. Steph Curry also seemed to have rediscovered his shooting efficiency. It could be a pivotal phase for the Dubs.
