New York Times  

OKLAHOMA CITY — In 10 games, the Golden State Warriors have already started six players at the shooting guard spot: Andrew Wiggins in a jumbo package to open the season; Buddy Hield, Lindy Waters III and Moses Moody in the three games Steph Curry missed; Gary Payton II in a couple of recent matchups; and finally, De’Anthony Melton on Sunday night at the Oklahoma City Thunder. … I would like for that starting group that was out there tonight to be our group going forward.” Steve Kerr plans to keep De’Anthony Melton as the starting shooting guard and wants that Curry, Melton, Wiggins, Draymond, TJD group to be the starting lineup moving forward Full explanation pic.twitter.com/6quMQuykve — Anthony Slater November 11, 2024 Kerr and the coaching staff discussed Melton as the preferred starting shooting guard back in Hawaii. Draymond Green preferred a center next to him to open games, and it became clear the Warriors wanted to get Jonathan Kuminga in the starting lineup to open the season. “This year it’s the total opposite.” Kerr started the second half with Payton in place of Jackson-Davis, leaving Melton as the starting shooting guard and Kuminga in his bench role.
