Nobody expected the Golden State Warriors to succeed without their leading scorer in the lineup. However, the Warriors seemed to have defied all odds to win games. In fact, since defeating the Memphis Grizzlies on Christmas day, the Warriors have not looked back and have gone on a four-game winning streak since then. However, more injuries to key rotational players may affect their chances of winning as the season unfolds.

Stephen Curry suffered an injury to his shoulder the last time Golden State played the Indiana Pacers. The Warriors were already struggling and with the injury to Curry, many speculated that this was it for ‘The Bay.’ However, the rest of the Warriors squad proved their doubters wrong.

Warriors holding their ground in the absence of Stephen Curry

Since the injury to Stephen Curry, other players on the Warriors roster have stepped up and played crucial minutes for the team. Jordan Poole being one of the main guys, followed by Donte DiVincenzo.

However, the injury report for the Warriors’ next game against the Hawks has players like Andrew Wiggins, James Wiseman, Jonathan Kuminga, and JaMychal Green out of the lineup. Which is obviously a point of concern for the fans.

4x NBA Champion Stephen Curry Brutally Snubbed in Divisive New Year’s Take: “Result Said More About the Supporting Casts Than the Superstars”

One fan tweeted, “Who on Earth do they have left?”

While another fan commented, “Warriors have been plagued with injuries sigh they need that 15th spot seriously.”

Here are some more reactions from fans on Twitter.

Many fans speculated that Wiggins would be returning to the lineup since he was cleared to play by the Warriors’ training staff.

Steve Kerr handled the team well

The Warriors really dug deep into their bench to fill the gap left by Stephen Curry. Players like Jordan Poole and Donte DiVincenzo have seen an increase in minutes during Curry’s absence. Klay Thompson, on the other hand, has been doing everything in his power to keep the Warriors afloat and help Poole while he’s on the floor.

But with more players missing out, one can only wonder how deep the Warriors’ bench can go. Head coach Steve Kerr had already been playing with a nine-man squad during their win against the Portland Trail Blazers in their last matchup. But losing another player means that the team stands on an eight-man squad now.

Now, the real question is, will the Warriors be able to take down a stacked Atlanta Hawks team in their next matchup? Let us know what you think in the comments section down below.
