Golden State Warriors suffer ‘humiliating’ 53-point loss

The Golden State Warriors suffered one of the worst losses in franchise history Friday night during a 53-point defeat at the hands of the Toronto Raptors — a team that came into the game having lost 13 of its last 14 games.

Did anyone see that coming? The Raptors dismantled the Warriors to such a degree that it was embarrassing. The Warriors were without Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson, and it was the second night of a back-to-back, but that was a shocking performance on all fronts. The Raptors got to the rim at will all night, locked in defensively to the repetitive and basic sets that the Warriors were running, and dominated every facet of the game. The lead grew to as many as 62 points in the fourth quarter.

The Warriors, now 23-26, sit in 10th place in the Western Conference and have struggled all season to find consistency.
