[Saba Sports News] Stephen Curry is facing a challenging season with the Golden State Warriors, potentially tougher than the 2020-21 season when the team missed the playoffs. Following a recent loss to the Suns, which brought the Warriors’ record to 10-13, a video shared by reputed leaker LegendzNBA showed Curry expressing frustration with his teammates over their defense and effort.
Curry’s disappointment is understandable given his impressive start to the season, averaging 29.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.4 assists. However, he’s receiving limited support from his teammates. Klay Thompson is underperforming, Draymond Green faces suspension issues, Chris Paul’s performance has declined, and Andrew Wiggins is not playing up to his potential.
The loss to the Suns, who are also not performing at their best this season, raises concerns about the Warriors’ ability to compete in the tough Western Conference. With each loss, the likelihood of significant changes within the team increases.
Compounding the challenges is Draymond Green’s indefinite suspension following an incident with Jusuf Nurkic. Green’s absence leaves a void in the team’s defense, though it might offer Jonathan Kuminga a chance to establish himself as a key player for Golden State.
Despite the Warriors’ ability to recover from below .500 records in the past, the increased competitiveness of the Western Conference this season makes a top-six finish uncertain, especially if Green misses a significant portion of the season.
This season is testing the Warriors’ resilience, and without substantial contributions from Thompson, Wiggins, Green, and CP3, the team may struggle to make the playoffs or face an early exit.
