Golden State Warriors vs. Atlanta Hawks: Key matchups
Steph Curry and Klay Thompson vs. Hawks defense
Both Steph Curry and Klay Thompson are expected to play against the Hawks. In the most recent matchup between the two teams on Jan. 24, Golden State won 134-112 behind Curry’s 25 points and Thompson’s 24 points. The Splash Bros combined for 10-of-18 shooting from behind the arc.
If the duo are to repeat a similar performance, it could be a tough ask for the Atlanta guards. While Dejounte Murray is a good defender, the same cannot be said about Trae Young. It could come down to Curry and Thompson exploiting Young’s defensive woes to get the Warriors a win.
Jonathan Kuminga vs. Hawks forwards
There were talks of Jonathan Kuminga being the future of Golden State for the past two seasons. But those were only talks, as Kuminga showed promise only to fizzle out. If the past eight games are any indication, Kuminga has truly arrived, as he scored 20 or more points in all those games.
The Hawks in the absence of Saddiq Bey could have a tough time against Kuminga. Jalen Johnson and Clint Capela will have to take the assignment of guarding the Congolese forward who seems unstoppable at the moment.
