Poole seems to be in his own head now, trying to make sure on every shot and make sure he’s not taking any bad ones. It’s not working so far. – 8:56 PM

When Curry checked out, he walked over to James Wiseman to give him a note about a play before he sat down. (I did not hear what he said) – 8:55 PM

Kenrich Williams and Mike Muscala are the first two off the bench tonight. Probably won’t see a ton of Favors minutes given the matchup. – 8:54 PM

9 early points for Draymond — including a corner three. His ability to knock down even a couple more jumpers creates a lot of extra space for everybody around him.
Chiozza getting some early run for Steph after Curry’s 41 minutes on Thursday. – 8:54 PM

Only three players in the NBA have attempted more than 20 three-pointers this season and are shooting better than 53% from downtown.
One is Seth Curry. The other two are Knicks PG’s: Derrick Rose and Kemba Walker.
(reminder: Elfrid Payton was the Knicks starting PG last season) – 8:17 PM

Josh Giddey worked out for only two teams: the Thunder and Warriors.
Insight from Giddey’s dad on those workouts, a promise from the Warriors and the Thunder going “underground” on draft day: oklahoman.com/story/sports/2… – 8:13 PM

Trae Young is upset about that foul call on Curry’s 3-point attempt. He gets T’d up. A fan yells that Trae has “terrible hair!”
It’s spicy! – 7:57 PM

Doc mentioned before the game that he wants to experiment with a Harris-Niang-Embiid lineup and was just figuring out which guards to use. That’s on the floor now, with Milton and Curry — and just led to an Embiid 3. – 7:55 PM

Mark Daigneault calls the Paycom Center housing the Blue & Thunder a “big benefit” it’ll likely not result in players playing 2 games in 1 day, they can “reconnect” to the team quickly such as Vit Krejci did this week. Practice with the Blue and sit on the sidelines with OKC. – 7:18 PM

Mark Daigneault said Jeremiah Robinson-Earl found a groove inside of the Warriors game, and he is a good match up for them. Says they’re trying to figure out what the best version of this team looks like, and it also allows them to use Favors differently. – 7:15 PM

Expectation is Jonathan Kuminga won’t be part of the Warriors’ scripted rotation tonight, but is active/available if opportunity arises. Kerr: “His time will come.” – 6:53 PM

Golden State likely would’ve picked Josh Giddey at No. 7, but of course OKC drafted him 6th.
Caught up with Warrick Giddey about Josh’s workouts with the Thunder and Warriors, and how things unfolded days before the draft:
