The Golden State Warriors managed a narrow victory over the Washington Wizards, finishing 122-114, but the win came at a steep cost as they dealt with significant injuries to key players. Draymond Green exited early due to calf tightness, while Stephen Curry sustained additional injuries to his thumb and ankle during the game. Coach Steve Kerr expressed concern for both players, noting they would be day-to-day following an MRI for Green.
Despite these setbacks, Andrew Wiggins stepped up, scoring 31 points and showcasing his all-around game. His performance was crucial in maintaining the lead against the Wizards, allowing the Warriors to avoid another disappointing loss against a struggling team.
