Rondo finished with 14 points, 15 assists, and 12 rebounds. He also added four steals. Despite a more human effort from the Warriors after playing at such an elite level to open the year, the Kings fell, 103-94.

Stephen Curry had an off-night by his standards, scoring 24 points on just 2-of-10 shooting from beyond the arc. He also missed an opportunity to play against brother Seth, who sat out for the Kings with a sore ankle the night after scoring a career-high eight points.
Still, the Warriors improved to 7-0 with the win.
