The Brooklyn Nets will try to avoid a three game losing streak when they host the visiting Golden State Warriors to the Barclays Center Friday at 7:30 pm ET.

Brooklyn (11-6) ran off five straight victories each time following their first two sets of consecutive defeats. The second of those winning streaks was snapped with a 102-89 loss at Miami on Saturday, and the Nets followed that up by falling 117-111 to Oklahoma City on Tuesday as their six-game home win streak ended.

The Nets were without center Brook Lopez for the third consecutive game in their game against the Thunder. Lopez could sit out again as he nurses a foot injury.

Veteran Andray Blatche can continue to produce in his place. Blatche has averaged 17.7 points and 9.3 rebounds in the last three games minus Lopez.

Brooklyn also hopes key reserve Reggie Evans returns after he missed Tuesday's game with the flu.

Meanwhile, the Warriors (11-7) opened the season with a seven-game eastern trip with a 104-97 win over Detroit on Wednesday. Klay Thompson scored 27 points while backcourt mate Stephen Curry had 22 with 10 assists.

Point guard Stephen Curry (19.1 points per game) has recorded four straight double-doubles. He's averaged 21.4 points and 9.6 assists while the Warriors have won four of five.

Thompson has averaged 20.1 points in seven games, beginning when he and Curry combined for 48 against the Nets last month.
