The Golden State Warriors have won eight games in a row in the early portion of the 2026/27 NBA season - their fourth-longest win streak in franchise history.
After losing their first three games of the season, Golden State became the first team in league history to win their next eight, and they're not done yet.
Steph Curry has played at an MVP level, Yaxel Lendeborg is already a force in his rookie year, and it looks like they've hit on the margins of their roster. Curry is averaging 30.6 points per game in just 28.6 minutes as the Warriors consistently blow out their competition. He looks quicker than years past, driving to the basket more frequently and pulling out some of his famous underhand floaters that we haven't seen much of recently.
Lendeborg, meanwhile, has played himself into being the favorite for Rookie of the Year as he's averaging 21.4 points and 7.2 rebounds while shooting 52.3% from the field and 44.3% from three. The 24-year-old looks confident and big, playing a similar role to what Jimmy Butler would play, but with much better three-point shooting.
Brandin Podziemski turned some heads when he signed a 5-year, $110 million contract in the offseason, but he's proven the Dubs' front office right with a terrific start to the season. Georges Niang and Charles Bassey have been big-time pickups, while Draymond Green, Al Horford, Gui Santos, De'Anthony Melton are staples of the team's tough defense and elite shooting.
Last night, the team demolished the banged-up New Orleans Pelicans 138-87 as six Warriors scored double-digit points. It was their fifth double-digit win as part of the streak as Curry and the nonstop depth have tormented teams. They're doing all this without Butler and Moses Moody, who are both expected to return in early 2027.
