What a difference a year makes. A Golden State Warriors team that a year ago featured the likes of Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green saw a lineup with no star power take the court against the Charlotte Hornets Saturday night.
The Dubs, inevitably loss their third straight, 93-87, without Green or D’Angelo Russell either.
Green had a finger injury and Russell tweaked his ankle. So the starting lineup was Ky Bowman, Jordan Poole, Glenn Robinson III, Eric Paschall and Willie Cauley-Stein. They’re being called the baby Warriors, but not exactly household names.
Social media, of course had a field day.
