The Golden State Warriors have failed to win a game in their last five matchups.
Following the 109-128 defeat at the hands of the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Warriors have slipped to a 6-7 record.
They may still be the eighth seed in the Western Conference, but being below the .500 mark is certainly not a good look for the team.
Speaking of the matchup against the Thunder, it was a special day for Warriors rookie Brandin Poziemski, who was reunited with Jalen Williams, as revealed via the Warriors’ official Twitter handle.

Brandin Podziemski and Jalen Williams played together for the Santa Clara Broncos during their college days.
While Williams was drafted into the league last season, Podziemski fulfilled that dream this year.
The two former teammates recently dueled in an epic matchup between the Warriors and Thunder.
It was Williams’ Thunder that ended up with a victory as he put up 16 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.
For the season, Williams is averaging 17.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game for the Thunder.
On the other hand, Podziemski had 13 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists in the blowout loss against the Thunder.
But that doesn’t take away the fact that he’s averaging 7.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game for the season.
Considering the two players are still young, they are still just scratching the surface of their true potential and one day may become elite players in the NBA.
Will fans see more epic duels between Podziemski and Williams in the future? Well, only time will tell.
