What you need to know about the Warriors
The Warriors didn't have too much trouble with the Houston Rockets at home on Sunday as they won 120-107. Golden State can attribute much of its success to shooting guard Jordan Poole, who had 25 points and five assists, and point guard Stephen Curry, who had 20 points.
Poole has been one of Golden State's best players this season, and has been crucial while the team awaits the return of sharp-shooter Klay Thompson (knee). Poole has averaged 18.4 points and 3.4 assists per game in 2021, and has been one of the team's top defenders, with 1.3 steals per contest. The Warriors are 5-3-1 against the spread this season, and 3-0-1 in their last four games -- all at home -- heading into Monday's meeting at the Chase Center.
What you need to know about the Hawks
The Hawks had a disappointing finish in their last outing, a 121-117 loss to the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. Forward John Collins did his best to keep Atlanta in it, with a double-double on 26 points and 10 rebounds. Point guard Trae Young had a double-double as well, with 31 points and 13 assists.
The last time the Hawks played the Warriors, they managed to take a 117-111 win, but that was in April of last season. Shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic has started out behind his typical offensive averages, but he has continued to shoot the ball well, and has made 41 percent of his 3-pointers. He's also hitting just under half of his 2-point field goal attempts so far in 2021, and is coming off an 18-point night against the Suns.
