The Warriors dominated their first meeting, winning 139-105 on January 2.

Philadelphia fell 110-105 to New York at Madison Square Garden despite Paul George’s 25-point, eight-rebound, seven-assist, three-steal display and Kelly Oubre Jr.’s 27-point, three-steal outing in the continued absence of Joel Embiid, who has since been shut down for the remainder of the season. The 76ers have now lost nine straight.

Golden State erased a 17-point deficit to defeat Orlando 121-115 at Kia Center on Thursday behind Stephen Curry’s 56-point, 12-triple (both season-highs) masterclass on 16-25 shooting. The Warriors now hold a 15-1 record from their last 16 games when Curry shoots 60.0% or above from the field. Jimmy Butler is questionable.
