Golden State Warriors seal 11th straight win

The Golden State Warriors have won their 11th game in a row, beating the New Orleans Pelicans 112-85 in the NBA.

The Western Conference leaders started slowly, with Anthony Davis leading the Pelicans to a six-point lead by the end of the first quarter.

The Warriors hit their stride before half time though, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson making a series of shots as the home side outscored the visitors 31-12.

Davis tried to keep New Orleans in the game, but Curry had four steals as well as a season-high 19 points to put the comfortable victory beyond doubt for Golden State.

The result keeps the team at the top of the conference with a 16-2 record, while New Orleans slip to 8-9.
