The Golden State Warriors begin the schedule-equalizing portion of their season Friday night when they get a revenge matchup at home against the Portland Trail Blazers in an NBA Cup game.

The Warriors will play more than two straight home games for the first time this season after concluding a nine-day, six-game trip that vaulted them to the league lead in road games with 12. They've gone 4-8 in those games after a 3-3 trip in which they won three of the first four.

Golden State now embarks on a five-game homestand that will equal the number of home dates the team has had this season. Three of those five earlier games were standalones, while the only previous two-game homestand was scheduled as a back-to-back.
