San Francisco: The Warriors faced off against the Lakers on Christmas Day, and it was a tough one. Despite Stephen Curry’s incredible performance, the team couldn’t seal the deal. Curry scored 38 points, but it just wasn’t enough.
In the final moments, Curry hit two amazing three-pointers, but the Lakers’ Austin Reaves drove in for a layup, clinching the game with just one second left. Ouch! The Warriors ended up losing 115-113 at Chase Center, marking their 11th loss in 14 games.
It was supposed to be a showdown between Curry and LeBron James, and both stars delivered. LeBron scored 31 points, and Reaves had a standout game with 26 points and a triple-double. The game was intense, with both teams trading blows right until the end.
But the Warriors’ bench? Not so great. They struggled to keep up, and it showed. Dennis Schröder, who was supposed to help, had a rough night, and the bench just couldn’t find their rhythm. It’s tough when the starters are doing well, but the bench can’t hold their own.
On a brighter note, Trayce Jackson-Davis is making a name for himself. He had a solid game with 11 points and nine rebounds, showing he deserves a spot in the starting lineup. If he keeps this up, coach Steve Kerr might have a tough decision to make.
All in all, it was a disappointing Christmas for the Warriors, but there’s always next time. Let’s hope they can bounce back soon!
