Stephen Curry Leads Warriors to Eighth Straight Win with Dominant Victory Over Pelicans
The Golden State Warriors are finding their rhythm at exactly the right time, and their latest performance was a reminder of what this team can do when everything clicks.
Golden State delivered a crushing 130-87 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night, extending its winning streak to eight games.
Stephen Curry led the way with 25 points in just 21 minutes, adding five rebounds and four three-pointers. He did not need to spend much time on the floor to make his impact felt.
Brandin Podziemski matched Curry with 25 points, while Yaxel Lendeborg also enjoyed an excellent night, contributing 23 points.
The Warriors were simply too much for New Orleans, building a huge advantage and turning the contest into a one-sided affair. A 43-point winning margin underlined just how comfortably Golden State handled the Pelicans.
What makes this run even more impressive is how the season started. The Warriors opened with three consecutive defeats, but they have completely turned things around with eight straight victories.
It is also their longest winning streak since the 2021-22 season, when they went on to win the NBA championship.
Golden State now sits at 8-3, while New Orleans falls to 4-7 after another difficult night.
Curry’s efficient performance, combined with the contributions from Podziemski and Lendeborg, gives the Warriors plenty of reasons to be encouraged. If they can maintain this level, they could become a serious problem for the rest of the league.
