The Golden State Warriors returned to their winning ways with a victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.
The new-look frontcourt of Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins and Jonathan Kuminga impressed. Steve Kerr’s roster has recently been looking like it is on the right track.
While a win over an injury-hobbled Sixers team will not change the current feeling surrounding Golden State’s struggles, it could be used as a platform moving forward. Of course, the Warriors will need to string some wins together if they want to be taken seriously, but you can only beat the team that’s in front of you.
Golden State will be back in action on Friday when it faces the Memphis Grizzlies in what should be another win, given the injury issues plaguing Memphis. However, before we look ahead, let’s take a closer look at which players made their presence felt on Tuesday.
Here are the Warriors’ top three statistical performers from their win over the Sixers.
