It was an odd statistical night for the Warriors in every sense except the win column on Thursday . The top team in the Western Conference reached the free - throw line only eight times and hit just four of its attempts in the win . Golden State saw an unusual off night from beyond the arc , hitting only nine threes on 28 percent shooting . Reigning MVP and scoring champ Steph Curry had more rebounds than points , ending with a line of eight points , eight assists , and 10 rebounds . Curry shot just 3 - of - 14 on the night . Fellow All-Star Draymond Green had a strangely similar line , shooting 2 - of - 12 for five points to go along with seven assists and 11 rebounds . Former MVP Kevin Durant added 17 points , a team - high 14 rebounds , and yet another eight assists . Golden State finished with a ridiculous 41 assists on 45 shots , just the sixth game ever in which a team assisted on over 90 percent of its shots . For New York , it was a dismal offensive night , as only three players scored in double digits and no starter scored more than 10 . Point guard Brandon Jennings had 10 points to go along with six rebounds and six assists , while bench guard Justin Holiday led the team with 15 points and five steals . The team shot just 40 percent and made only five three - pointers on the night . The host Golden State Warriors easily defeated the visiting New York Knicks on Thursday , 103 - 90 . The Warriors ( 23 - 4 ) hold the league 's top record through 27 games now for the third straight season . It was a low - scoring night on Thursday for the league 's top offense , but the Warriors still had no problem getting the win , outscoring the Knicks by 14 in the first half and holding on in the second . Golden State oddly got to the free - throw line only eight times on the night and made just half of their attempts . It was a dismal night from the line for both teams , as New York went 9 - of - 19 on free - throws as well . Aside from the line , though , Golden State shot well , hitting 46 percent of its attempts . Shooting guard Klay Thompson led the team with 25 points and had four three - pointers . It was a monster rebounding night for the Warriors , as they pulled down 57 boards . Kevin Durant , Steph Curry , and Draymond Green all pulled down double - digits in the rebounding column . For the Knicks ( 14 - 12 ) , forward Carmelo Anthony ( shoulder ) and guard Derrick Rose ( knee ) found themselves injured at an inopportune time . The Knicks ' offense needed all the help it could get , as no starter scored more than 10 points . The team hit only 40 percent of its shots and had just five three - pointers . Sophomore star Kristaps Porzingis had an off night , scoring only eight points on 4 - of - 13 shooting to go with five rebounds . Bench guard Justin Holiday led the team with 15 points and also had an impressive five steals . The Warriors will host the Trail Blazers on Saturday , while the Knicks will visit Denver to take on the Nuggets .
