Also, given the reports of his left knee issues, it was great to see him play the best minutes of the season. Klay almost played for 26 minutes and scored effectively in the same period.

With Klay feeling good about himself and his minutes slowly speeding up, the Dubs seem deadlier than ever. As long as they make steady progress on this path and Draymond Green recovers soon, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the West.
