Golden State beat New Orleans 138-87 on Monday for their eighth straight win. Stephen Curry scored 25 in 21 minutes, Brandin Podziemski also had 25 and rookie Yaxel Lendeborg added 23 on 8-of-10 shooting. The cost: Brandon Williams hurt his left hamstring in the first quarter and will have an MRI. Steve Kerr called it a 'big concern', with Will Richard already out after tearing the UCL in his left thumb. Richard is meeting doctors to decide whether he can play with a splint or needs surgery. Williams has averaged 11.1 points in 17.8 minutes in his eight healthy games.
"He's a huge part of our team, and he's given us such a lift. And it's a hamstring. He's going to get an MRI, so we'll see how bad it is." — Steve Kerr
