The Golden State Warriors had a relatively easy start to the season as the team blew out both the Portland Trail Blazers and Utah Jazz. The Warriors faced their first decent challenge against the LA Clippers but unfortunately failed. Not only did the Warriors lose to the Clippers, they had multiple players suffer injuries in the process.

The Warriors are about to have their depth extremely tested during their next 10 games. These are the moments that players like Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody, and Brandin Podziemski have been waiting for. Now, it's just a matter of actually getting it done.

The Golden State Warriors face off against the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday at 10:00 p.m. EST.
