The Golden State Warriors (7 - 2) defeated the Charlotte Hornets (4 - 6) 112 - 87 on Saturday. Golden State is on a two - game win streak. They were up 67 - 46 on the Hornets at halftime, and the Hornets were never able to dig into the deficit in the second half. Klay Thompson scored a game - high 21 points in 27 minutes. The Warriors will go on the road to face the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Charlotte was playing the second night of a back - to - back set. They beat the Phoenix Suns 103 - 95 on Friday, and with the way the Suns run, it's no surprise the Hornets did n't have enough in the tank to take on a rested Warriors squad. Charlotte shot 38 percent from the field and a bizarre 57 percent from the free - throw line. They were also out - rebounded by the Warriors 51 - 41. Charlotte will return home to host the Dallas Mavericks on Monday.
