Previously with the Warriors:
The Warriors capped off their road trip with a big 128-121 win against the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday night. Stephen Curry played his first game back from an ankle sprain he suffered more than a week ago. While he started the night off a bit rusty – zero points in his first quarter of action – the Warriors’ starting point guard inevitably made his presence felt, finishing the night with a team-high 31 points. More importantly, Curry revealed that as far as his ankle was concerned, he felt fine as everything went just as he expected.

Meanwhile, Curry’s fellow Splash Brother, Klay Thompson, also had himself a big night. Thompson was second on the team with 26 points on 9-of-15 shooting from the field. He also went 5-of-10 shooting from the three-point line as he continues to thrive in his new role coming off the Warriors’ bench.
"I think early on, he was too worried about how people [were] judging him. And now he don't care ... I think it shows incredible maturity."

What to watch for tonight:
Golden State hopes to keep their momentum going but will have to do so by defeating a gritty Knicks team at home. This might be easier said than done, however, as the Warriors have been incredibly average at the Chase Center this season with a record of 17-17 — the worst home record among all of the playoff-contending teams in the West.
Meanwhile, the Knicks are 18-14 on the road and are currently 2-0 on their current road trip. They have an overall record of 40-27 this season and sit comfortably as the fourth seed in the East.
Having said that, the Warriors have been a new team since the start of February. They have 15 wins during that span – tied for the second-most in the NBA. It’s been a great stretch for Golden State as they continue to ascend up the Western Conference standings, now ranking just ahead of the Lakers for the ninth seed. With just 16 games left in the regular season, the Warriors have their sights set on the Phoenix Suns, the Dallas Mavericks, and the Sacramento Kings, trailing each of them by just three games.
