The Golden State Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics 118-112, handing the Celtics their first home loss of the season despite the absence of Celtics stars Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis. Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 27 points, surpassing Charles Barkley on the all-time scoring list, and contributed significantly with nine assists, seven rebounds, and four steals. The Warriors, adjusting to a new team dynamic without Klay Thompson, have started the season with an impressive 7-1 record. The Celtics, while demonstrating promise with new player rotations like Neemias Queta, are challenged by injuries, including a new hamstring injury to Luke Kornet. The Warriors' victory highlights their potential to be a formidable team this season, overcoming earlier doubts due to a softer schedule.
