How Dennis Schröder’s knowledge of a Warriors play allowed Draymond Green to stick his ‘Fist Out’

As the third quarter was dwindling down in the Golden State Warriors’ home-game contest against the Orlando Magic (which seemed like an eternity ago — but was actually just a month ago), Dennis Schröder brought the ball down as Steve Kerr was calling out the play to run.
