Robert Williams is the kind of player the Warriors will be looking for if they lose this series. Maybe it’s Wiseman, but at this point, it doesn’t seem like it. He’ll need to develop the same kind of defensive-minded killer instinct around the rim. Right, Ron Adams? – 9:37 PM

More on this storyline

Wiseman underwent an orthobiologic injection during a multiday trip to London with Warriors general manager Bob Myers in April, multiple sources told The Athletic, as both sides worked to find a way to promote healing in the knee. The plasma-rich injection in Wiseman’s arm was a therapeutic treatment used to increase healing throughout the body. -via The Athletic / June 13, 2022

Warriors rookies Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody — the Nos. 7 and 14 picks in the 2021 NBA Draft — are both set to participate in at least a portion of Summer League as well, sources said. -via The Athletic / June 13, 2022

Looking back, Jeff Van Gundy admits he was thoroughly surprised when Andre Iguodala was announced as MVP of the 2015 NBA Finals. Surprised, he says, because he was certain LeBron James would win it. “Actually, I was shocked that it wasn’t unanimous for LeBron,” says Van Gundy, ESPN’s lead NBA analyst. “That’s just me. I didn’t think it was a hard decision.” -via Sports Illustrated / June 13, 2022
