"In Saturday's demolition of the Charlotte Hornets, the Warriors became the first team in league history to make at least 20 3-pointers in three consecutive games, and also became the only franchise to have at least 10 players make a triple in three straight games. Having the greatest shooter of all time in Steph Curry - named an All-Star starter on Monday - doesn't hurt, but homecourt advantage has also been one factor."
"The team is in the midst of an eight-game homestand, the longest of the season, which means the players have not had to deal with the trials and tribulations that come with playing road games. "We're in a good groove and we needed this homestand," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. "This is the most momentum we've had since we started 4-1.""
Golden State recorded at least 20 made three-pointers in three consecutive games, becoming the first team in NBA history to do so. The franchise also logged at least 10 different players making a triple in each of those three games. Steph Curry was named an All-Star starter and the team is on an eight-game homestand that reduced travel-related strain. De'Anthony Melton has averaged 14.0 points over his last 11 appearances, made 10 triples over the last three games, and remains limited to about 25 minutes while ramping up after an ACL tear. Coach Steve Kerr described strong momentum.
