In a surprisingly comfortable win over the Toronto Raptors, the Golden State Warriors earned their first win on a six-game road trip.
Despite being underdogs, the Warriors desperately needed to win after dropping their first three games of the road trip.
In the opening three possessions, Golden State got three triples from the returning Draymond Green, indicating that neither team was interested in defending. As the Warriors opened up a ten-point lead following the opening six minutes of play, they held Toronto to just six points.
Poole scored 43 points in the Warriors’ 126-110 win over the Raptors at Scotiabank Arena on Sunday. The ten rotation players who played for Golden State finished with positive plus-minuses, supporting his performance.
