Even with Curry missing 11 games due to a strained groin, the defending Champs did not fall too far back in the ever so competitive West. Now, with the 2-time MVP fully restored and recovered, Golden State look familiar again.

Next in line is the offensive machine, Kevin Durant, who is averaging a blistering 29.1 ppg this season, along with 7+ assists and rebounds per game. With Klay, KD & Curry, all averaging at least 22 points or more, there's nothing much the defense can do to stop GSW in their tracks.

They are sitting atop the Western Conference leaderboard at the moment, carrying an 18-9 record, having won 11 of their 13 home games so far.
