Warriors Dominate Hornets 136-116 with Historic Three-Point Shooting

Warriors Extend Winning Streak with Commanding Victory

The Golden State Warriors defeated the Charlotte Hornets 136-116 on Saturday night, with De’Anthony Melton leading the charge with 24 points. This victory holds particular significance as it continues the Warriors’ impressive homestand and showcases the team’s offensive depth in the 2025-26 NBA season.

Historic Three-Point Shooting Performance

The Warriors hit 23 of their 52 three-point attempts, with 10 Golden State players making at least one three-pointer, marking the longest such streak in NBA history at three consecutive games. This remarkable achievement demonstrates the Warriors’ offensive versatility and their commitment to long-range shooting, which has been a hallmark of their success since the three-point line was introduced in 1979.

Golden State extended its winning streak to three games and improved to 5-1 on its eight-game homestand, positioning themselves strongly in the competitive Western Conference.

Balanced Scoring Attack

Draymond Green scored 20 points for the Warriors, whilst Brandin Podziemski added 16, and both Stephen Curry and Buddy Hield contributed 14 points each. For the Hornets, Brandon Miller led all scorers with 28 points and Kon Knueppel added 24.

Charlotte cut Golden State’s halftime lead to just three points midway through the third quarter on a layup by Knueppel, but the Warriors’ depth proved too much for the visiting team to overcome.

Looking Ahead

The Hornets will face Denver on Sunday, whilst the Warriors host Miami on Monday. For Golden State, this victory reinforces their status as serious contenders, whilst Charlotte continues to develop their young roster despite the setback. The Warriors’ ability to distribute scoring across their entire lineup and break NBA records in the process signals their readiness for a deep playoff run.
