The Golden State Warriors will be without the services of\u00a0Klay Thompson<\/a>\u00a0for the first time in 13 years, marking an end to the \u2018Splash Brothers\u2019 duo alongside Stephen Curry. Despite losing their four-time NBA champion in the summer, Warriors head coach\u00a0Steve Kerr<\/a>\u00a0believed that the team has improved in a significant sector.<\/p>\n The Warriors kicked off their preseason campaign with back-to-back wins. In the first game, they defeated the Los Angeles Clippers after their new sharpshooter, Lindy Waters III, scored a buzzer-beater. The Dubs registered a 10-point victory in their next game against the new-look\u00a0Sacramento Kings<\/a>\u00a0with the addition of\u00a0DeMar DeRozan<\/a>.<\/p>\n In their\u00a0game against the Kings<\/a>, the Warriors scored 28 three-pointers from 52 attempts, while Sacramento made 7 out of 27 attempts. Ten players scored at least one from beyond the arc, four made no attempts, and two missed their only shots. In a post-game interview, Steve Kerr admitted that shooting could win them many games. He also revealed the team\u2019s improvement in a specific area despite\u00a0Thompson\u2019s exit<\/a>.<\/p>\n He said,\u00a0\u201cThe math just doesn\u2019t add up, especially for us. We\u2019re not a team that gets to the free throw line much. It\u2019d be hard for us to win a lot of games unless we shoot, had volume 3s.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Steve Kerr: \u201cWhat I like about this team, even though we lost Klay, we have more shooting depth. We have more guys that can step in and make threes one night to the next.\u201d pic.twitter.com\/pgb28yHTlo<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 95.7 The Game (@957thegame) October 10, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
