While injuries have been a major problem for the Warriors, the issue that is just as large is that the younger players the group has been banking on to take another step haven’t done so yet this season.

The Warriors posted an announcement as star guard Steph Curry made a ton of threes in the loss against the Trail Blazers on Sunday.

Stephen Curry scored 48 points in the Golden State Warriors’ defeat to the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday. Curry has missed nine games this season due to injury, but he has been absolutely outstanding when he has played.

To be fair, the Magic are better equipped this season to support Banchero without his two main co-pilots. Desmond Bane can, and needs to, ratchet up his offense, Anthony Black is a vastly improved player and Wendell Carter Jr. has gone from a 23% to 42% 3-point shooter.

A Warriors trade target, Michael Porter Jr., has made the most efficient 20-game start in NBA history since Kevin Durant.

The New Orleans Pelicans could be a potential suitor for Jonathan Kuminga as the Warriors continue to bench him.

Stephen Curry had 48 points, but it wasn't enough as the Golden State Warriors (13-14) lost to the Portland Trail Blazers (10-16) 136-131 on Sunday at Moda Cent
