While impressive stat lines were in abundance on Friday , few have inspired the same level of chatter as Anthony Davis . With 45 points and 17 rebounds against the Pelicans , Davis is the first player since Michael Jordan in 1991 to score 90 or more points in the first two games of the season . Davis is also the first player 23 or younger to ever have multiple 45 - point , 15 - rebound outings in the same season , a feat he has managed to accomplish in just two games . Despite Davis 's absurd individual achievements , the Pelicans remain winless . For the Warriors , meanwhile , the big four of Steph Curry , Klay Thompson , Kevin Durant , and Draymond Green contributed big numbers in Friday 's win . Durant led the team with 30 points and 17 rebounds , while Curry and Green dished out seven assists each . Curry also hit four three - pointers , including the 1,600th of his career . Curry is just the 19th player in NBA history to reach the mark , and the fastest to do so , having played just 497 career games . The Golden State Warriors defeated the host New Orleans Pelicans on Friday , 122 - 114 . The Warriors ( 1 - 1 ) bounced back from a nationally - televised 29 - point loss to the San Antonio Spurs on opening night . High-profile free agency acquisition Kevin Durant was the difference maker for Golden State on Friday , leading the team with 30 points and 17 rebounds . The Warriors depth also showed , as the team was able to pull away with the lead during Anthony Davis 's rest at the end of the third quarter . All-Stars Steph Curry and Klay Thompson made major contributions in the points column as well , scoring 23 and 28 respectively . The team displayed impressive ball movement , recording 32 assists on the night . While the Warriors saw major top - down contributions , the Pelicans ( 0 - 2 ) were able to stay in contention on the back of Anthony Davis . After opening the season with a 50 - point , 16 - rebound , near - five - by - five , Davis continued to dominate with a game - high 45 points and 17 rebounds . 'The Brow ' was able to convert on a whopping 17 of 31 field goal attempts , including one of two tries from beyond the arc . Davis did see help from guard Tim Frazier , who posted a 21 - point , 10 - assist double - double . Outside of Davis and Frazier , however , no Pelicans starter scored more than four points . Sixth overall pick Buddy Hield particularly struggled , scoring just two points on 16 percent shooting with two turnovers in 19 minutes . The Pelicans will see the Spurs in San Antonio on Saturday , while the Warriors will visit Phoenix on Sunday .
