The Golden State Warriors will welcome the Indiana Pacers at home on Sunday, November 9, before they jet off to a five-game road trip. The hosts head into the game on the back of two back-to-back defeats. In their most recent fixture, they suffered a blowout loss to the Denver Nuggets in one of the group stage games of the NBA Cup. Currently in the eighth spot in the Western Conference, the Warriors have a 5-5 record. On Sunday, they would aim to avoid a 3-0 hole and eye a remarkable win that would push them higher in the standings.

The Indiana Pacers, on the other hand, are one of the worst performing teams of the ongoing season. Having finished the previous campaign as the NBA Finalists, the Pacers have seen a significant slump in their performance this season. They are seeded near the bottom in the Eastern Conference with just one victory in eight games. Indiana is in dire need of adding more wins to their tally, and they are aiming to do it against the Dubs.

Both teams have several injury concerns, and here, we will take a look at their injury reports and predicted starting lineups.
