It only took two overtimes (and one middle-of-the-night flight) but the Golden State Warriors are still undefeated.
The reigning NBA champs kept the streak alive with Friday night’s victory over the Boston Celtics and now Golden State takes its show back to the road with a matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks less than 24 hours later.
There’s more history to be made on Saturday night and you’re not going to want to miss a single moment of it. Here’s everything you need to know about the matchup and how to watch it live:

Game Preview: What do you do when you’ve already recorded the best overall start and longest road winning streak in NBA history? You add to your historic run. Obviously.
The Golden State Warriors can do just that, looking to become the first NBA team to sweep a road trip of at least seven games with Saturday night’s matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks.
But while the Warriors have made it all look easy so far this season, this might be the biggest test of all. Golden State is coming off a two-OT victory over the Boston Celtics on Friday night and have been in Milwaukee for less than 24 hours before heading back to the hardwood. Add into the mix that Klay Thompson might miss another game with a sprained right ankle and the Warriors may actually be challenged.
“Now I can admit I’m tired,” Steph Curry said after Friday’s victory in Boston. “We’ll dig deep for (Saturday).”
While it’s a quick turnaround for the Warriors, it’s also the sixth game in nine days for Milwaukee after Friday’s 90-83 loss inn Toronto. The Bucks are also averaging just 89.1 points in their last eight games.
Still, history is on Golden State’s side. The Warriors have won 17 of 19 back-to-backs since last Christmas and Curry averages 2.8 points and is a 56.1 percent shooter with no rest.
