Warriors handle the Bucks and Suns to complete mini 2-0 homestand. They now have the second best home record in the NBA: 29-7. But…the road awaits. Five-game trip: at Clippers, Hawks, Grizzlies, Rockets, Mavericks. They’re tied in fifth with the Clippers at 36-33. – 12:38 AM

There are only 3 teams in the NBA who are .500 or better this season that have a bottom-10 D on the season — DAL, SAC, ATL
In the 10 games since the Mike Conley trade, the Wolves have only had above average O against two teams — DAL and SAC.
And they’re torching ATL tonight. – 8:28 PM

I don’t know if Nickeil Alexander-Walker played with a true big in college/AAU/high school, but he looks like a player who has played with a more traditional big.
