Single Season Wins, NBA History
The 2015 NBA Champion Golden State Warriors earned their 68th win of the 2015-16 season following tonight’s 103-96 overtime victory at Utah, establishing a new franchise record for single season wins by topping the mark of 67 wins set last season. Golden State, which is the sixth team in NBA history to win at least 68 games in a single season, improved to 68-7 (.907) in 2015-16, the best record in NBA history through 75 games.
With a 32-7 (.821) road mark in 2015-16, Golden State improved on a franchise record for road wins and became the fifth team in NBA history to earn at least 32 road wins in a single season. In addition, the Warriors have won an NBA-record 54 consecutive regular-season home games and are 36-0 at home this season, which is a franchise best home start.
Earlier this month, the Warriors clinched the 2015-16 Pacific Division title, claiming their first back-to-back Pacific Division crowns since 1974-75 and 1975-76. The Warriors are slated to make their fourth-straight playoff appearance for the first time since qualifying for the postseason in each of the first six years of the league’s existence (1946-47 to 1951-52).
