The Golden State Warriors are facing the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night after facing the Houston Rockets on Sunday night. With this being the second half of a back-to-back, there was some question about the status of Steph Curry, but the superstar point guard is not listed on the injury report, meaning he will be available.

Curry is not a player who usually rests one half of a back-to-back, but he was listed as questionable for the Houston game with foot soreness, so it was reasonable to wonder what his status would be for this game vs. New Orleans. Listed as available for Golden State, Curry will look to continue the momentum he and the team have been building, and make it three-straight wins after their opening night loss.

The Warriors defeated the Kings and Rockets after falling to the Suns on opening night, and will have another test with the Pelicans on Monday. Golden State decided to bring veteran point guard Chris Paul off the bench for the first time in his career in Sunday night's win, which they are expected to do going forward when at full strength.

There is a lot riding on this season for Golden State, and each game is an opportunity to build momentum towards their ultimate goal of another championship with this dynasty core.
