Golden State Warriors Expected Playoff Contenders Amid Health and Aging Challenges
The Golden State Warriors are entering the 2025-26 NBA season with strong playoff aspirations, largely built around the leadership and skill of Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler. Despite their talent, the team's success heavily depends on maintaining player health, as the roster features several key players over 35 years old, including Curry, Butler, Draymond Green, and Al Horford. Injuries, particularly to star players like Curry, could derail their season, making careful management of playing time crucial for head coach Steve Kerr. ESPN's projections are optimistic, predicting the Warriors to win 56 games and finish second in the Western Conference, but some analysts caution that the team's age and injury risk may temper these expectations. The Warriors' approach seems to prioritize postseason readiness over regular-season dominance, with a focus on preserving player health for a potential deep playoff run. Ultimately, their championship hopes hinge on a balance of experience, health, and strategic rest.
