The Golden State Warriors hit the road for a three-game set against the Southwest division. First up, the New Orleans Pelicans.
The Pelicans boast the best front court duo in Demarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis coupled with possibly the worst back-court in the NBA.
I originally had Draymond Green pitted against Demarcus Cousins for the key match-up of the game but it was uncertain as to whether he’d play at all after suffering a knee injury in the season opener against the Houston Rockets.
The MRI showed came back negative, which is great news.
