The Warriors are back, and leading them from the front is the Golden Boy Stephen Curry. After being out of the title contention for two seasons, the Dubs have shown us their championship DNA. The Warriors face their biggest threat in the Chris Paul and Devin Booker duo of Phoenix Suns.
However, Dub Nation has the other half of the Splash Brother Klay Thompson back on the hardwood. The Warriors guard missed two and a half seasons due to unfortunate injuries. Nonetheless, Thompson is steadily returning to his original self, giving us glimpses of his magnificent shooting.
Draymond Green:
In the Warriors’ recent win, Curry had 14-assists, two assists shy of matching his career-high. The former unanimous MVP is averaging an impressive 6.5 APG, which is the most since the 2016-17 season, not counting the 2019-20 season since Curry played only five games in that.
Over the years, the Warriors superstar has received criticism from certain factions regarding his ability to fulfill the role of the ideal point guard. Many believe Curry fulfills the role of an SG rather than a PG. Draymond Green is the unsung point guard of the Warriors.
