The Golden State Warriors got back into the win column on Thursday. Their next battle will prove more difficult.

There are moments in sports that some people won’t forget, and they will either be good or bad. Stephen Curry has had some moments that people have cheered for, while others have scared some as well.

Will Stephen Curry and Draymond Green suit up tomorrow vs. the Pacers on the second night of a back-to-back for the Warriors?

All eyes will be on the stands when a future challenger to his throne will have an opportunity to scout Stephen Curry's long-range shooting arsenal as the Golden State Warriors face the Indiana Pacers on Friday in Indianapolis.

Since Durant's departure after the 2019 season, Golden State has lurched between extremes. It has won a fourth title in 2022 and posted a 15–50 stinker in 2020, when guard Stephen Curry was injured. All the while, the newly moneyed Warriors have been unable to nail the transition to what's next.

When the first returns of the 2025 All-Star games released, Curry trailed Doncic by 59,714 votes. However, the NBA publicised the second return of All-Star votes, revealing the fans favor Curry over the Mavericks star by 25,160.

The Warriors were awarded a technical free throw after Jackson-Davis and Terry Rozier had to be separated early in the fourth quarter, and Curry drained it to cut the deficit to 87-86. But the Heat immediately answered with a trio of tres — none closely contested — to push the lead back to 10 and pull away for good.

The Indiana Pacers are enjoying one of their best stretches of play from the 2024-25 NBA season. They should get a healthy opportunity to continue their encouraging results. The Pacers will be riding a four-game winning streak into Friday night's matchup against the Golden State Warriors.

When healthy, Williamson has shown how dominant he can be, but the Pelicans have failed to capitalize on the 24-year-old star. The Pelicans could look toward a new era and trade their injury-prone star, with many potential suitors likely lining up their offers already.

Malik Monk had 26 points and 12 assists, Domantas Sabonis contributed 22 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists, and the Sacramento Kings dominated the Golden State Warriors 129-99 for their fourth straight win despite playing without leading scorer De’Aaron Fox.
