Despite dropping on game of their back-to-back with the Pelicans, the Golden State Warriors are in a great place moving forward. After losing the second, they had a nice victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Golden State Warriors have five games left, and with a need to win all five, these three players can still prove themselves as the season comes to an end.

They’ll get the Thunder again, and then they’ll have a couple of difficult games against the Utah Jazz and Phoenix Suns.

While they would need an absolute collapse and then a perfect Pelicans finish to miss the postseason completely, the Warriors still have something to play for although they’re locked into the play-in tournament.

Stephen Curry being the scoring leader for the second time in his career is one thing to keep an eye on. He’s currently in the lead, but he’ll need a strong finish as the Wizards are surging to end the season as well.

Other than Curry, the Warriors still have a few players that need to prove something to the coaching staff before the regular season ends. That said, let’s break down who those three are and what they need to show in the five remaining games.
