Warriors monitor Kelly Oubre Jr. amid thin roster

Golden State Warriors
September 2025

With only nine players under contract and Kuminga’s RFA standoff ongoing, Golden State are linked with a reunion for Kelly Oubre Jr. The 76ers reportedly open to movement; Warriors could use a trade exception to add wing scoring. Oubre’s downhill punch and switchable size complement Curry/Hield/Podziemski spacing, even if efficiency fluctuates. If Kuminga opts for the qualifying offer, flexibility tightens; adding veteran athleticism becomes more urgent as camp nears and bench creation remains thin.

Luka Takes the Blame After 3PT Streak Snaps in Costly Loss to Warriors

Luka Doncic (Los Angeles Lakers)
Thursday night, April 3

Luka Doncic scored just 19 points on 6-of-17 shooting in the Lakers’ 123-116 loss to the Warriors, snapping his 114-game 3-point streak. Despite a strong second-half push led by LeBron (33 pts) and Reaves (31 pts), L.A. couldn’t complete the comeback.
Doncic struggled from the floor and went 0-of-6 from deep, breaking one of the longest 3-point streaks in NBA history. LeBron powered a second-half surge with 25 of his 33 after the break, but the Warriors’ swarming defense and early lead proved too much. The Lakers now sit 4th in the West with six games remaining.
