Who leads the Warriors in assists?
You’d be forgiven for guessing Stephen Curry. That’s whom I would have said.
It’s Draymond Green, whose 6.6 assists per game trump Curry’s 5.6.
Golden State has a pretty good formula: Push the pace and/or run a pick-and-roll to get Green the ball in space. (Stephen Curry helps TREMENDOUSLY here.) Then, let Green operate.
That resulted in a few impressive lobs – two to Festus Ezeli, one to Andrew Bogut – in the Warrior’s win over the Timberwolves last night.
