Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 27 points, while Jimmy Butler also had an efficient performance, scoring 21 points. The Nets made 18 three-pointers but were outperformed in rebounds, turnovers, and points in the paint. The Charlotte Hornets suffered a 113-123 home loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Rookie Knueppel missed the game due to an ankle injury sustained against the Magic, marking the first game this season where the Hornets were without the promising young player. Despite the Hornets' efforts to limit Giannis Antetokounmpo (scoring only 24 points in 25 minutes), Bobby Portis, Kevin Porter Jr., and Myles Turner had strong performances, combining for 16 three-pointers.
