Warriors are looking to have their first 7-0 road trip in Franchise history. They are also looking to tie their longest winning streak at 11 games in Franchise history.
The Nets will be without Deron Williams as he has been battling a lot of injuries this year. He will be out tonight due to an ankle injury. The Nets are going to try to beat the Warriors to ruin their streak and keep their 3 game win streak going.

Deron Williams will miss the Brooklyn Nets’ game against Golden State on Wednesday after receiving treatment for his chronically injured ankles.
Williams was diagnosed Monday with a sprained left ankle, and the Nets said he was treated with a cortisone shot in the ankle joint. He also got platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections into the lateral ligaments of the ankle.
Williams missed his 12th game of the season Monday because of left ankle injuries. He battled problems with both ankles last season before sitting out a week around the All-Star break in February for treatment.
