Just a little bit longer. The Golden State Warriors needed to hang on just a little bit longer.
With D’Angelo Russell on their roster, the Warriors are a top-eight team in the West. Sadly, a combination of a shoulder injury and a foot injury has caused Russell to sit out almost a month this season.
Russell’s absence combined with Klay Thompson’s and Stephen Curry’s to really hamper the Warriors in just about every on-court area. Those are three of the team’s four highest-paid players, and for the most part, they’ve struggled to either get on or stay on the court.
