GSW vs SAS Dream11 : GSW’s predicament looks set to continue today when they take on a ruthless San Antonio Spurs side today.

The last instalment of NBA saw Golden State Warriors begin their campaign with an extremely slow start, losing a hoard of matches but given the players enshrined in the outfit, there were never really any qualms about the side progressing from the conference. It’s something the outfit can no longer bank on this time around though with the unit not only massively depleted due to the exodus of their key players but the injuries riddling the side as well.
While their defeat in the previous clash saw them slumped down into 11th place with the three defeats from four matches, what was a bigger concern for the outfit was the injury to Stephen Curry. It has left this side as a paper thin unit, one left picking up the pieces and only left covering the cracks in their quest of trying to wrench out of their losing ordeal.
And in Western Conference’s San Antonio Spurs, GSW face an extremely tricky and guile filled side, an outfit which has left its marker in the early exchanges of the league. What will give GSW a glimmer of a chance today though is the fact that San Antonio Spurs were defeated for the first time in four matches yesterday, a 103-97 against LA Clippers. Also, with this being the second match on the bounce for the side within the space of less than two days, GSW know they have a side which can be defeated, an encounter where the side will turn to its lesser played players to overturn their sordid form.

GSW vs SAS Dream11 Point Guard
It’s not just the point guard facet but today’s encounter overall for which choosing a team was an extremely dicey affair. Where GSW are embroiled in a spate of injuries, San Antonio Spurs on the other hand are bound to leave out some of their regular players for this encounter, seeing us ponder heavily over our picks for this clash.
We begin by getting in Patty Mills in the point guard section while from GSW we are going in with Ky Bowman. With Curry out for today’s impending, Bowman is set to replace him and given the performances he’s doled out till now, he looks one of the most promising picks from the side for this one.
GSW vs SAS Dream11 Shooting Guard
What Stephen Curry’s departure has also done to GSW is to leave the side devoid of a three pointer specialist with the side massively left in disarray. Jordan Poole has looked enterprising and enigmatic in the chances he’s got, showing his calibre with his radiant skill set seeing him find his open zone and position himself outside the circle to send down treys.
GSW vs SAS Dream11 Small Forward
Omari Spellman represents us from Golden State Warriors in this facet with the player managing to manoeuvre past defences in his travails and drop a plethora of points. His ball movement and rotations have seen him layup the ball for his counterparts with us envisaging him to drop another stellar show today.
GSW vs SAS Dream11 Power Forward
If San Antonio Spurs are to win this clash, they’ll need their power forwards Draymond Green and Eric Paschall to intertwine their skill set in unison. The two players will need to maul and mar the opposition with blocks, screens and steals, something the two are more than capable of doing to see both of them become our choice in this slot.
GSW vs SAS Dream11 Centre
Both are layers are from San Antonio Spurs in this department given GSW’s floundering gameplan. In LaMarcus Aldridge and Jakob Poeltl, the side not only have two players who’ll be the first to latch onto rebounds and deflections but also players who acumen of the game can see them avidly transition possession from defence to attack. Also their jumping and float shots off the basket have been improbable to stop, making hem excellent value for this one.
Star Player
Hefty deliberations engaged for this decision but we decided to move in with Paschall as our choice for today.
