The new additions to the Golden State Warriors have integrated well so far this season, but one of their more intriguing signings was hit with another setback. De’Anthony Melton, the defensive specialist who joined the team on a one-year, $12.8 million deal this offseason, brought much-needed versatility to the team, and specifically, the starting lineup. However, after two games playing as a starter, he suffered an ACL injury against the Dallas Mavericks that has sidelined him for the past two matchups.
The news doesn’t sound good for Melton as Warriors head coach Steve Kerr provided a somber update on his injury status during an interview with 95.
