The final day of the California Classic saw a similar result for the Summer League edition of the Golden State Warriors, falling to the Miami Heat 94-70. Score doesn’t matter too much in Summer League though, it’s all about productivity from different prospects and showing coaches and scouts what you can do.
The tough part for the Warriors though was that no one really had a good game however there were a few decent moments and positive things to build off of heading into Las Vegas. The Warriors had a tough time stopping Miami’s 2022 first-round selection Nikola Jovic. The big man had a great game, scoring 25 points while shooting 5-for-7 from three.
Other than Jovic, the Warriors did a good job containing the Heat with 13 points being the next highest Heat scorer. The worrying thing was not the defense though, but the scoring from the team or lack thereof. Moses Moody really struggled in the game only scoring 13 points on 5-for-15 shooting.
