On Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors suffered a home loss to the San Antonio Spurs, ending their winning streak. Although the Warriors stayed competitive through three quarters, they were outscored by 13 points in the fourth, allowing the Spurs to pull away.
Draymond Green was a key figure in the game, notably matched up against Spurs’ rising star Victor Wembanyama in a physical and intense showdown that captured the spirit of the contest.

Warriors Missing Key Players Amid Injury Concerns
The Warriors competed without Stephen Curry, who is sidelined until after the NBA All-Star break. Despite solid performances from Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski, the team was unable to maintain their lead down the stretch. Golden State’s advantage, which was double digits for much of the game, evaporated in the fourth quarter.
Looking ahead, the Warriors hope Curry will return healthy alongside Kristaps Porzingis, recently acquired from the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga. Porzingis is expected to add valuable rim protection and floor spacing, though his availability remains uncertain due to ongoing health issues.
Upcoming Schedule Offers Chance to Regroup
With the All-Star break providing some respite, the Warriors will have time to recover before facing the Boston Celtics in a challenging home matchup next Thursday. How well Golden State reintegrates key players like Curry and Porzingis could be crucial for their success in the second half of the season.
