Four Biggest Takeaways from Warriors' Summer League

The Summer League games are finally over as the Trail Blazers were crowned champions and given newly made championship rings on Sunday afternoon. Overall, the Dubs Summer League squad only won a single game which left many fans concerned. But the main goal for the team this year was to get their three young players in Moody, Wiseman, and Kuminga, valuable minutes to expand and become more comfortable in their roles for next season. And while that didn’t equate to many wins, the trio along with a few others played extremely well. Here were four takeaways from the teams’ play:

STEPHEN CURRY REUNITES WITH RILEY MORRISON IN LAKE TAHOE

Steph's Under Armour line has become one of the most popular shoes amongst youth hoopers. In 2018, he released his fifth shoe with UA– the Curry 5's. At that time, the boots were only available in men's and boys' sizes. When nine-year-old Riley Morrison, at the time, saw that there were no shoes for young girls, she decided to take action into her own hands

James Wiseman Makes His Return, Propels Warriors to First Summer League Win

It’s been about fifteen months since James Wiseman last played a basketball game and on Sunday night against the Spurs he made his return. The seven footer put up a healthy 11 points on seven shots along with two blocks. Here was his first bucket back:

Steph Finishes 16th in ACC Golf Tournament

It wasn’t quite the weekend for another championship trophy-hoisting, but Steph Curry proved once again that his golf game is doing just fine despite his devotion to the game of basketball. Curry finished tied for 16th - ahead of father Dell (18th) and brother Seth (67th) - in this year’s American Century Classic Celebrity Golf Tournament, which was won by former NFL quarterback and current NFL commentator Tony Romo.

James Wiseman Playing Full-Contact at Summer League Practices

The biggest issue the Warriors had according to both fans and detractors last season, was the lack of a true center. Kevon Looney apparently heard the noise, and put up a performance fit for somebody four inches taller than him: Despite the implication that the Dubs couldn’t match up with the size of other teams in the West, they managed to win a ring without a player over 6’9 tall on their active roster for the playoffs.

Steph and Curry Family to Participate in ACC Golf Tournament

Steph Curry is really good at basketball. It seems to run in the family, as his brother Seth currently plays for the Brooklyn Nets, and their father Dell had a good career mostly with the Charlotte Hornets. Off the court, however, it’s become well-known just how much Steph likes to golf, and apparently his family does too. The Currys will be returning to the celebrity golf scene this year at the American Century Championship in California’s Lake Tahoe.
