In the last game, Steve Kerr experimented with Draymond Green coming off the bench for the first time since the 2021-22 season. It didn't result in a win, but adding a veteran and proven winner to the second unit seems like a sound strategy.
The Warriors are narrow favorites, and desperate to end their skid. Their last win against the Houston Rockets was expected to get them back on track, and sandwiching Friday's loss should be a solid way for the Dubs to move on.
