Warriors’ Lindy Waters III on learning from Stephen Curry & Draymond Green
Most of the shots clanked off the rim as Stephen Curry sat on the bench to heal the tendinitis in his knees.
Perhaps not surprising the Golden State Warriors struggled to replicate the shooting accuracy that the NBA’s all-time greatest shooter often produces. Without Curry, the Warriors labored through a 102-92 loss to the LA Clippers on Friday at Intuit Dome mostly because they shot a collective 35-for-95 from the field (36.8%) and 7-for-38 from deep (18.4%).
Most of those misses belonged to Warriors guard Lindy Waters III, who missed all six of his shots from 3-point range. But what Waters lacked in shooting accuracy, he made up for in steals (two) and in plus-minus (+16) in 16 minutes off the bench. That explains why Kerr called Lindy’s play “fantastic.”
