The Golden State Warriors took the court Saturday night to take on the New Orleans Pelicans.
Golden State did it without franchise legend Stephen Curry.
It showed in the early going, too. The first half featured a remarkably low-scoring mark of 42-38 at the intermission.
Not having Curry out there certainly makes a difference.

Stephen Curry isn't playing Saturday night for the Warriors against the Pelicans because he is injured.
Curry has a quad contusion.
He got hurt taking a charge in Golden State's recent game against the Houston Rockets.
