Following a 120-114 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night, Golden State is now two games up on the Denver Nuggets for the top spot in the Western Conference. 

Cousins has been playing well over the last few weeks, scoring in double figures in 17 of his last 18 games, shooting 61.8 percent from the field.

Clippers:
Despite trading Tobias Harris at the deadline, the Clippers have remained in the thick of the playoff race, clinching a postseason berth on March 31. 

Los Angeles is led by Lou Williams, who's averaging a league-best 20.1 points off the bench and, as the Warriors know, can unleash a 50-piece in any game. 

Meanwhile, Gilgeous-Alexander, who has had a fantastic rookie season, is averaging 15.4 points, 5.4 assists and 3.3 rebounds, shooting 53.3 percent from the field and 54.5 percent from 3-point range over his last five games.
