The Golden State Warriors as we read in one of the previous slides, has been a very dominant team for the past 4 years or so. This season, they are in 2nd place with a 20-10 record and half a game behind Denver Nuggets.

They've won 7 of their last 10 matches and seem to be back in form. A huge part of their matches has been Kevin Durant, who led the team when they were missing Curry due to his injury. He kept them in almost all the games with some superb basketball and has not stopped performing this season.

Durant in the 2018-19 NBA season has been averaging 29 points per game, with more than 6 assists per game and almost 8 rebounds per match as well. He always shows up for the Warriors, contributing all over the court.

In the game against the Sacramento Kings, he scored a huge 33 points, along with 8 assists and 8 rebounds, keeping the Warriors on course for the win and beating them. He is one of the few players who should be a lock on your DFS squad.
