Golden State defeated Charlotte 136–116 on January 17 at Chase Center, a 20-point victory that exceeded the Vegas total of 236.5 combined points. D. Melton led the Warriors with 24 points, supported by D. Green's 20, as Golden State shot 54.8 percent from the field and connected on 23 three-pointers to establish offensive dominance. Charlotte's B. Miller countered with 28 points and K. Knueppel added 24, but the Hornets shot just 45.7 percent and committed 17 turnovers against Golden State's 11. The Warriors' third quarter proved decisive—they outscored Charlotte 43–37 in that frame—and their defensive rating of 108.9 held the visitors to an offensive rating of 108.9. Golden State's 34 assists and 8 steals underscored efficient ball movement and perimeter pressure that Charlotte's 27 assists and 5 steals could not match. The Hornets' 44 rebounds offered little consolation as the Warriors' 41 boards and superior shooting efficiency proved too much to overcome. This win extends Golden State's command in the Western Conference playoff picture.
