The Warriors were defeated by the Kings on Wednesday night, and Kevon Looney's absence was felt in the frontcourt.

Steve Kerr turned to rookie Quentin Post for an expanded role in the absence of Looney. The Warriors center finished the game with five points, six rebounds, and one block. At the postgame press conference, Kerr spoke out on Post's future in the rotation. It sounded like Warriors fans should get used to seeing a little bit more of him.

But the team has been "fun-bad," thanks to solid play from two-time All-Star small forward/shooting guard LaVine, two-time All-Star center Nikola Vucevic, and guards Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu and Giddey. In the mediocre East, the Bulls are good enough to have at least a shot at the postseason.

NFL trade deadline rapidly approaching, here is the ultimate dream deadline scenario for the Golden State Warriors.

The Golden State Warriors looked like legitimate contenders during the early stages of the NBA season, but things have changed. Since getting off to 12-3 start,

Saturday night’s nationally televised 118-108 loss pushes the Warriors (22-23) back under .500. Davis torched the shorthanded Warriors with 36 points and 13 rebounds as the Lakers held a comfortable lead for the entire second half. Seven Warriors scored in double figures, but it was an inopportune time for Curry to have an off night.

Anthony Davis notched 36 points and 13 rebounds as the Lakers handed the Warriors a 118-108 loss on Saturday night.

The Golden State Warriors depth chart for the ... skill set and will continue to learn alongside Curry. Lastly, Kevon Looney offers valuable backup support at center, ensuring depth in the frontcourt.

For the second time this season, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers got the best of Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Saturday.

The Golden State Warriors (21-21) and Sacramento Kings (22-20) entered Wednesday night's game at Golden 1 Center with just one game separating them in the Western Conference standings. Two Pacific Division teams, Golden State and Sacramento are both competing for playoff spots.

Anthony Davis has gotten the best of Golden State in recent matchups, and we anticipate the Lakers’ superstar dominating down low for Los Angeles tonight.

And don’t forget, this past offseason, the Warriors lost a $30 million chunk of salary when they jettisoned Chris Paul strictly for luxury tax avoidance. The NBA owners wanted a system that brought big-market, big-spending teams like the Warriors to heel, and they received it.
