Steve Kerr had a lot of praise for Jordan Poole just now. Said a lot of players wouldn’t have played on Monday. Ankle was really swollen. Jordan practiced fully again today. – 5:37 PM

Steve Kerr says Jordan Poole was good at practice today, but really gutted it out in Game 2 with his sprained left ankle
“I was really proud of him for playing the other night. His ankle was really swollen.” – 5:35 PM

Warriors GM Bob Myers says the focus has quickly shifted to what now? The team is working on their game plan without Green. What do you think #dubnation start Jonathan Kuminga, or start small with DDV or Jordan Poole??? – 5:28 PM

Steve Kerr could go a ton of directions to replace Draymond Green in starting lineup
*Jordan Poole (juice the offense)
*Gary Payton II (juice the defense)
*Jonathan Kuminga (activate him with bigger role)
*Donte DiVincenzo (regular spot starter)
*Moses Moody (big role last night) – 11:57 PM

Draymond’s season started with him slugging a teammate, in part, it would seem, out of jealousy about a contract extension that Poole got and he didn’t.
His season is ending with him being suspended for stomping on an opponent, costing himself any chance of that extension. – 11:42 PM

That’s an absolutely awful call in favor of Sabonis on Curry. Was still moving forward when the contact occurred. But he also got hosed on the previous one on Wiggins. – 12:38 AM

Kerr sits Wiggins with Fox still in … Wiggins is up to 35 minutes. That whole break was pretty long, so I can’t imagine Wiggins sits for too long – 12:26 AM

Both teams are really going to appreciate the under 7 timeout here. Kerr probably is going to need to get Wiggins a rest before the end of the half. – 12:21 AM

13 points in 5 possessions to open the quarter for the Kings. 2 Len dunks and three 3s. 13-4 Kings run. No Wiggins or Payton and the perimeter D gets roasted by the Kings. Kuminga and DDV getting lit up by Monk and Fox. – 10:46 PM

Andrew Wiggins made his return Saturday night in Game 1 of the Warriors’ first-round series against the Sacramento Kings, giving Golden State back what it considers the missing piece to its puzzle despite the Game 1 loss. “When you go through all the decisions to put a roster together, all of the pieces have to fit,” Stephen Curry said. “He’s a big part of everything we do. When you go into a season, you want to be as fully healthy as possible because that’s the way all the pieces are meant to fit. We haven’t had it for a very long time and we tried to hold down the fort. Now we have that look back.” -via ESPN / April 16, 2023
