The Golden State Warriors will face the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday, Nov. 3. Both teams will be playing their first game on the inaugural in-season tournament and will want to get off to a good start. At the time of writing, Steph Curry is expected to participate in the contest.
Curry has featured in all five of the Warriors games this season. He's scoring at an elite level and has already displayed an exceptional amount of conditioning, courtesy of his relentless off-ball movement and on-ball changes of pace. Curry remains integral to the Warriors' chances of success.
The in-season tournament will also count toward every team's overall win/loss column and have an impact on their conference seeding. As such, Steve Kerr is expected to utilize his usual rotation, including Curry, Chris Paul, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson.

Nevertheless, the Thunder will pose a significant threat to Golden State. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is an All-NBA talent, while Josh Giddey and Jaylin Williams are both up-and-comers in the NBA. Chet Holmgren is a Rookie of the Year candidate, and his size could be a big issue for a small Warriors roster to deal with throughout the game.
