Owing to off-season roster changes and major players being injured, the Warriors have fallen to the worst record in NBA 2019-20. Kevin Durant departed to the Brooklyn Nets via free agency, while Klay Thompson was injured during the sixth game of the NBA 2018-19 finals. Stephen Curry's injury further worsened the Warriors' game. New player D'Angelo Russell and Draymond Green have also been out of a few games due to injury. Despite rookie Eric Paschall performing well, the Warriors have not been able to bag 5 wins this season. The Warriors last lost to the New York Knicks in a 124-122 overtime encounter and will play the Utah Jazz next on Friday, December 13 EST (Saturday, December 14 IST).
