The Golden State Warriors suffered yet another offensive meltdown Monday night against the L.A Clippers, turning a 17-point lead into a 13-point loss — a familiar, almost weekly occurrence at this point.
But amid the chaos, one encouraging trend has continued to emerge as the season has gone on: Golden State has gotten immediate, better-than-expected production from its two-way players.
It started with Pat Spencer, whose performances earned him a standard NBA contract, and more recently with Malevy Leons and Nate Williams stepping up in a bigger spotlight.
