The current NBA league is already very dangerous because so many players trigger NBA health and safety agreements and have to truce, go to be checked or treated. Previously, the Chicago Bulls have voluntarily applied for an extension of two games, and today the NBA officially agreed to postpone three games, and the shutdown may be just around the corner.
In any case, as long as the game has not stopped, the teams will have to find a way to overcome the difficulties. The Golden State Warriors inevitably fell into this situation, and they could not hide from the risk of players being infected. It is understood that Jordan Poole, the team's third-place scorer this season, has been forced to truce, and the worst news was last night.
The Warriors' main outside defender this season, as well as number two scorer Wiggins, has reportedly been tested for an infection and needs treatment. Wiggins has been very good this season, as efficient as ever on the defensive end, and the projection from outside the three-point line is also relatively accurate, averaging about 18 points per game, making him one of Curry's best helpers.
Thompson had planned to make a comeback in mid-to-late December, but is now ready to postpone his comeback until January. That is to say, in fact, the Warriors' flank is very lacking now, they have no Poole, no Wiggins, almost lost.
But fortunately, the Warriors have younger players to come up with, and that is this year's first round of No. 7 rookie Cuminga. Despite the high picks, Cumminga is more about good physical fitness and the need to polish the techniques. In order to carefully cultivate Kuminga, the Warriors first arranged for him to go to the NBA development league to exercise, accumulate game experience, and correct the shortcomings of technical actions.
Nowadays, Cuminga's technology is becoming more and more delicate, and the performance in the development alliance is still good. With a shortage of manpower, the Warriors recalled Cumminga, who made his first start against the Toronto Raptors on Dec. 19, blasting 26 points and two steals on 9-of-15 shooting and 4-of-6 from beyond the three-point line. With such a rookie, the Warriors can be a little more at ease.
