X-Factor Damion Lee keeps the Warriors afloat

One of the biggest questions leading into the Golden State Warriors season was how the team would stay afloat in the months before Klay Thompson’s return. The answer, for four games at least, has been heavy minutes from the Warriors X-factor, Damion Lee.

Against Oklahoma City, the NBA’s most famous Curry brother-in-law (sorry Austin) played 26 minutes and scored 20 points. He shot 8-14 from the field, and 4-7 from three-point range. His plus-minus? +16.

On the season, he’s averaging 14.3 points in 26.9 minutes per game. Lee is a 47.3% shooting from deep and over 90% at the line.
