Golden State Warriors rally to grab 13th NBA victory (AFP)

The Golden State Warriors erased a 23-point first-half deficit to stretch their NBA season-opening win streak to 13 games with a 124-117 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. The reigning champions became just the fifth team in NBA history to open a season 13-0 and continued to close in on the record for the best start to a season of 15-0 -- achieved by Washington in 1948-49 and the Houston Rockets in 1993-94.
