The Golden State Warriors may not have ranked high during the last two seasons for several reasons, especially with the injuries that their players suffered. However, their performance in the current campaign has seen them reach the top. It is even more surprising considering that they are maintaining this level of play despite Klay Thompson’s absence.
One can only wonder about what might happen when Thompson returns.
While maintaining the top spot in the league across various statistics, they have made some players angry with their performance.
