1. Star players injured

Number one on this list should not be a surprise. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, nicknamed the “Splash Brothers,” were missing from the 2019-2020 season due to injuries. Klay Thompson missed the entirety of the Warriors’ season after tearing his ACL during Game 6 of the 2019 Finals. Before his injury, Klay put up consistent numbers throughout the years, ending the 2019 regular season with a 46.7 field goal percentage and a 40.2 3-point field goal percentage.

During playoff games, Thompson shot a consistent 45.6 field goal percentage and a clutch 44.3 3-point field goal percentage. Klay was taking his injury seriously and being cautious about it last time he updated us, as he wants to play another decade of basketball.

Steph Curry, the other half of the Splash Brothers, suffered a broken left hand just four games into the 2019-2020 season. Curry had surgery shortly after but sat out of games until March 5. He played only one game before the season was postponed, scoring 23 points against the Raptors.

The extra break for the Warriors will be good for both Steph and Klay, giving them extra time to heal their injuries and get back into shape for the next season.
