The Golden State Warriors defeated the New York Knicks 126–113 on January 15 at Chase Center, with J. Butler III leading the way on 32 points and Stephen Curry adding 27 in a balanced Warriors offensive attack. Golden State shot 53.9 percent from the field and made 20 three-pointers, establishing early control with a 30-point first quarter before extending their advantage through the third frame, when they scored 37 points to effectively seal the outcome. The Knicks, led by O. Anunoby and M. McBride with 25 points each, struggled to maintain rhythm after a strong opening quarter of 35 points, tallying only 24 in the second and 26 in the fourth. New York's 46.2 percent shooting and 14 three-pointers proved insufficient against the Warriors' 26 assists and defensive intensity, which held the Knicks to a 130.3 defensive rating. The final margin of 13 points fell short of the Vegas total of 228.5, reflecting Golden State's methodical execution. The Warriors' third-quarter dominance and efficient long-range shooting underscores their capacity to control games against Eastern Conference contenders.
