What happened: Draymond Green expressed confidence that the Golden State Warriors are prepared to navigate any missed time for Steph Curry. Green said improved team spirit and a clearer identity make Golden State better positioned to stay afloat than they were last season.
Why it matters: The Warriors sit at 8-4 through 12 games in the 2026-27 regular season, holding the sixth seed in the Western Conference. With Golden State coming off a 115-108 loss to the Houston Rockets, maintaining stability without Curry will be crucial for keeping pace in the playoff race.
By the numbers: Golden State Warriors in 2026-27: 8-4 record through 12 games (No. 6 seed in Western Conference).
What to watch: Golden State will monitor Curry's status ahead of their next regular-season contest.
