Things We Love About The Warriors: Gratitude

Things We Love About The Warriors is a series focused on traits we admire about the team as a whole, or individual players, that extend beyond the boundaries of the court.

It takes a healthy dose of humility to play far fewer minutes per night — or games per season — than one is used to, or capable of, doing. But Golden State players do just that. Their willingness to sacrifice in this way — to give up individual playing time, which could impact their careers or legacies — is the exact reason the Warriors have been so successful.
