Golden State Warriors vs. Portland Trail Blazers preview

The Golden State Warriors enter the game against the Trail Blazers after a hectic game against the LA Lakers on Sunday. After back-to-back wins in their first two games, the Warriors were unable to make it three in a row at the Crypto.com Arena as they lost by 10 points. The team had a difficult start in the first half, falling behind by 17 points. Although they managed to make some progress in the third quarter, the Lakers quickly regained control in the fourth quarter, ultimately winning the game with a score of 126-116.

While considered favorites against Portland, the Warriors will be without Draymond Green and Jimmy Butler, while Steph Curry's involvement in the game remains questionable. This will impact the Warriors significantly as they will rely on Brian Podzemski, Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga to get the win.

On the other hand, the Portland Trail Blazers enter this game with a 1-1 record and will be eyeing their revenge against the Warriors. Succumbing to a loss against Golden State in their first preseason game, the Trail Blazers will be hoping to get back at them at home as they look to continue their winning run.

Following a major offseason rebuild, the Trail Blazers now feature an intriguing mix of young talent and veteran experience as they look to make a push for the playoffs. With one final preseason matchup in Utah on Thursday, Portland will be eager to notch a win against the Warriors and wrap up its warm-up campaign on a positive note.
