Warriors’ Head Performance Therapist Chelsea Lane confirmed to the Athletic’s Marcus Thompson that she is leaving the team after three seasons. Lane has agreed to take the Executive Director of Athletic Performance and Sports Medicine position with the Atlanta Hawks.
Given the various injuries to the key players that almost derailed the Warriors’ season, Lane proved to be the ‘Dubs’ real MVP.
Lane worked tirelessly with Stephen Curry throughout his various ankle and knee injures during the season. When Curry missed the final weeks of the regular season and the first round of the playoffs, Lane was by his side-staying in the Bay Area with him while the team was on the road.
