The normally stellar duo had an off night.
Looking ahead, the Warriors will host Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks at the Chase Center on Saturday. Curry and Thompson, instrumental in leading the franchise to four NBA Championships since 2015, aim to rebound from their recent setbacks. After a previous season where they secured the sixth seed in the Western Conference but exited in the second round of the NBA playoffs, the team is keen on making a stronger impact this season.
