When these teams last met on Nov. 20, a combined 50 points from Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins meant the Dubs got the 120-97 win. But they’ll have to do it without Curry this time. The Warriors' sharpshooter suffered a pelvic contusion against the Toronto Raptors on Thursday in the third quarter.

Steve Kerr’s men have been on a fine run of form lately, winning nine of their previous 10 outings, including a 6-1 run during their latest seven-game homestand. Their only loss came against the shorthanded Denver Nuggets, a contest where Curry had his worst shooting night.

The California outfit currently occupies the sixth seed with a 41-29 record, and a victory on Saturday could keep it afloat in the hunt for a playoff spot. With the Minnesota Timberwolves (41-31) breathing down Golden State's necks, the team knows that picking up vital wins during the last stretch of the regular season could prove pivotal.

They bounced back after suffering back-to-back defeats with a 134-102 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. Atlanta had two days of rest and will be extra motivated to get more wins on the board if it is to lock in on the sixth seed.

The Warriors listed only two players on the injury report ahead of the clash. As expected, they will be without the services of Steph Curry, though it is unclear exactly how long he may be out.

Meanwhile, Gary Payton II is expected to face a late fitness test as he continues to carry a questionable status. He missed the team’s last game due to knee soreness.

Steve Kerr is likely to make a tweak in the lineup, with much of the scoring responsibility falling on Jimmy Butler’s shoulders. Butler, along with Draymond Green, Moses Moody, Brandin Podziemski and Quinten Post, will most likely be the starting five.

The Hawks will be sweating over the fitness of several key players, including Trae Young, who has been listed as day-to-day with an Achilles issue. Caris LeVert is also probable with right knee soreness, with both players most likely to play.

Meanwhile, Clint Capela is out with a metacarpal ligament injury that will sideline him for the next three to four weeks.

Quin Snyder will most likely go with Onyeka Okongwu, Zaccharie Risacher, Mouhamed Gueye, Trae Young and Dyson Daniels.
