So close, yet so far.
With bascially an entirely new team post-trade deadline, the Golden State Warriors fell to the Los Angeles Lakers 125-120.
In his first game as a Warrior, Andrew Wiggins scored 24 points on 8-of-12 shooting (3-of-4 3PT, 5-of-9 FT). He looked like he will fit right in alongside the Splash Brothers.

February 9, 2020 Anthony Davis dropped 27p/4a/10r (yikes), while LeBron James dropped 22p/11a/8r (double yikes). LeBron also hit a shot that felt like deja vu:

February 9, 2020 Draymond Green, who was ruled out pre-game with back injury, joined the crew at halftime. He thinks if the Warriors are healthy, then "we’re right back where we need to be.”
