After that, Lakers superstar Luka Doncic put on a show with 43 points (17-27 FG, 2-10 3-point), 12 rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one block over 41 minutes against the Warriors with LeBron James (sciatica) out.

Making things even better for the Warriors, Curry made history in the process with his performance. According to Polymarket Hoops, the 37-year-old sharpshooter became the oldest guard to score at least 20 points in a season opener.

The Golden State Warriors and returning player Jonathan Kuminga received several huge predictions for the NBA season.

The Denver Nuggets hope to accomplish what the Golden State Warriors did two days earlier when the recent NBA champions go head-to-head in another duel of superstars Thursday night in San Francisco.

Draymond Green perfectly described Jimmy Butler, who led the Warriors in their season-opening victory against the Lakers.

Jimmy Butler scored 31 points, Stephen Curry added 23 and the Golden State Warriors overcame Luka Doncic's 43-point performance to beat the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Golden State Warriors have been one of the most successful teams in the NBA over the last 20 years and have assembled a dynasty that won four championships.

LeBron James has not missed too many games in his NBA career, however the Los Angeles Lakers superstar was unable to feature in his team’s season opener, with James missing the Lakers’ home loss to the Golden State Warriors due to sciatica.
