The Golden State Warriors take on the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum in Thursday evening's marquee 2021-22 NBA regular-season game.

The Warriors have surprisingly struggled to produce wins consistently of late. They have lost three of their last four games entering this contest. The Dubs lost 108-118 against the Memphis Grizzlies in their previous outing. Steph Curry recorded a 27-point triple-double, while Klay Thompson had 14 points in his 20 minutes of play-time.

Meanwhile, the Bucks also find themselves in a slump right now. They have lost four of their last five matches. Milwaukee is coming off back-to-back losses against the Charlotte Hornets. Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton combined to score 53 points, but their efforts weren't enough in their 99-103 loss in their last game.
