The Golden State Warriors are playing their best basketball since 2019 and there are a few different reasons for their recent success. It’s time to analyze why.

As we approach the end of the season, the Golden State Warriors are hitting their stride and here are the three reasons why.

It might be disappointing to see that three-quarters through the season, the Dubs are below .500 with a 28-29 record. Yet, considering all of the brutal blows they have taken and the winding twists and turns of the season.

A devastating injury to Klay Thompson, a shortened, underwhelming debut from James Wiseman, routine inconsistency from the supporting cast and a bruised tailbone for Stephen Curry – it’s remarkable the Warriors are kicking into full gear like they are now.

The Warriors have won four of their last five and have one of the easiest remaining schedules in the league. This string of favorable games to close the season could help push the Warriors comfortably into the playoff picture and grant them an advantage in the play-in tournament.

Nonetheless, their success depends on their ability to keep momentum down the home stretch. Let’s see the three reasons Golden State is looking their best as of late.
