Earlier, the Warriors won the Thunder 110-98 away from home, winning nine consecutive games, and a wave of consecutive wins should have been something to be happy about, but the team's veteran Iguodala returned to the locker room after only 5 minutes of playing because of back tension, and has never played again. Before he left the game, the stats were frozen in 3 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. After the game, Warriors coach Kerr also said in an interview that he was worried about Iguodala's injury.
As a veteran who helped the Warriors win the championship, Iguodala came to Golden State in the 13-14 season, playing for the Warriors for 6 seasons, second only to the 76ers in the early years of his career, and the Warriors' last 3 championships, Iguodala has made great achievements, and even in the 15-year finals, Iguodala accidentally defeated Curry and won the final FMVP. I thought I would end up with the Warriors, but I did not think that after the defeat to Toronto in 19 years, the Warriors began to purge, Iguodala did not escape, he was sent to the Memphis Grizzlies by the team in the offseason, and because he hated that this rebuilt team was not competitive, Iguodala did not go to the team to report, which caused a lot of controversy at the time.
Hesitant to compromise, Iguodala was eventually transferred by the Grizzlies again before the trade deadline, and was sent to the Heat, this time Iguodala chose to put on the Heat jersey, and in his first season, he helped the Heat reach the Finals, although the power on the offensive end has long ceased to be the courage of the year, but on the defensive and organizational end, Iguodala is definitely an important puzzle for the Heat.
After the end of the season, the Heat immediately offered Iguodala a 2-year, 30 million contract extension, to continue to stay in the team Iguodala, but did not play the standard it should be last season, plagued by back injuries, he can only average 4.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, with the Heat out of the first round of the playoffs, Iguodala also carried the label of "high salary and low energy".
After the end of last season, Iguodala jumped out of the contract, as a free agent, accepted a basic salary contract of 2.64 million yuan offered by the old club Warriors, and in the opening game with the Lakers, Iguodala scored 12 points, which is a great trend of rejuvenation, but unfortunately the good times are not long, as the season deepens, Iguodala is once again plagued by his old injuries, so far a total of 26 games have only been played for the Warriors. For the second-time veteran, Kerr is very trustworthy, this season Iguodala has gained 19.9 minutes of playing time, but as he grows older, Iguodala is really a bit overwhelmed, currently averaging only 4.1 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game, shooting percentage and three-point shooting as low as 39.2% and 23% of the three-point range, respectively.
Before today's game against the Thunder, Iguodala has been missing 8 games of the Warriors, during his absence, rookie Moody and Cummingga also seized the opportunity to take the upper position, and now it is difficult to return to the game, but once again fell on the injury, for the 38-year-old Iguodala, this season may really be his farewell season. Admittedly, he still had a certain amount of oil in his tank, but in the case that his physical condition did not allow him to continue to gallop on the field, Iguodala could only compromise with the years. Not surprisingly, after this season, Iguodala may really be saying goodbye to his playing career.
