The Golden State Warriors won 44 games during the regular season, they did not have the best in the Western Conference (6th 44-38) but that was enough to reach the playoffs.

Curry is averaging 29.4 PPG with him being the only player nearing 30 points per game and one of two players scoring 20+ points, the other player being Klay Thompson.

The last time the Warriors won an NBA title was in 2022 when they defeated the Boston Celtics in what was an electrifying final.
