With the loss, the Golden State Warriors fall to 12-11 on the season. However, the team will look to build off of Steph Curry's big night when they battle the San Antonio Spurs on February 8th.

The Dallas Mavericks will also have a day off before hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves on the 8th for a chance to start gaining ground in the Western conference.
