The Golden State Warriors‘ season has been a mixed bag so far. While they sit 9th in the West, they’re just 0.5 games behind the 6th seed and the automatic Playoffs spot. However, the Warriors have been boosted by the return of Stephen Curry. As the defending champions gear up to face the Cleveland Cavaliers, the latest update on the 2x MVP hasn’t pleased NBA fans.

The Warriors are coming off a tough OT loss against the Boston Celtics. Ahead of their second game in as many nights, they have decided to take a major decision on Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins. The Warriors will be sitting all four of them against the Cavs. This decision hasn’t gone down well with fans as it’s the only time Golden State will be visiting Cleveland this season.

This is the final game of a 5 game road trip for the Warriors. While they lost against the Celtics and the Chicago Bulls, they were victorious in San Antonio and Washington. With the stars sitting out, it will be a chance for the other players to finish this road trip on a positive note.
