For a basketball game in September, there was certainly no lack of drama in the Dubs’ preseason opener on Saturday night. But in the end, the Dubs fell just short in the 114-110 loss to the Timberwolves at Oracle Arena.
A tie game with two and a half minutes left, the five Dubs reserves that closed the game – none of whom were on the roster at the end of last season – were held scoreless for the remainder of the game.
Although the Dubs struggled at the end, they didn’t at the start. The Warriors were lights out early, particularly from 3-point range.
