Two of the NBA’s biggest draws, the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers, squared off in a preseason tune-up on the 7th. Sure, the Warriors’ offseason moves didn’t exactly set the world on fire—plenty of folks wrote them off as a team headed for a rebuild. But Steph Curry? The man still has that magic touch. In just 14 minutes and 19 seconds of action, he went 4-of-7 from the floor, piling up 16 points, 2 boards, and 5 dimes, with an eye-popping plus-minus of +26. That’s the kind of night that left the Lakers in the dust, 124-98, for Golden State’s first preseason win.

　　Coming off a tight 3-point loss to the Clippers in their opener, the Warriors had another L.A. squad on their plate. Problem was, the Lakers’ new superstar Luka Doncic sat this one out, which made the purple-and-gold look a little… thin. From the opening tip, the Warriors came out firing. Curry paired up with rookie Yaxel Lendeborg—the 11th pick, a bit older for a draft prospect—and the two just went to work. Lendeborg played 14 minutes and stuffed the stat sheet: 17 points, 8 boards, 2 assists, and a block. By halftime, the Warriors had built a ridiculous 81-53 lead.

　　Curry called it a night early in the second half, and Lendeborg didn’t do much more damage either. But the damage was done. Golden State cruised to that 26-point rout without breaking a sweat. Beyond Curry’s 16 and 5 dimes, and Lendeborg’s team-high 17 and 9, Brandin Podziemski—who’s in the middle of contract talks—chipped in 16 points of his own.

　　As for the Lakers? They had four guys in double figures, but the top scorer was Sandro Mamukelashvili with 15. Quentin Grimes, another key offseason pickup, added 12 points and 3 assists. Not exactly the kind of depth that’s going to scare anyone—especially when your star is watching from the bench.
