The Golden State Warriors have kicked off the season 1-2. After those first three, they should be prepared to give these three players more minutes.

It’s been a tough week for the Golden State Warriors.

They took the court opening night and were absolutely blown out by the Kevin Durant-led Brooklyn Nets. They then had to play on Christmas, another embarrassing defeat. The Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks were the team responsible for that one.

Following those two losses, the team finally got back on track with a win over the Chicago Bulls. Thanks to a Damion Lee game-winning three, the Warriors were able to not start the season with three straight losses.

While it’s easy to look at this team and be discouraged, there have been some positives to come from this season so far.

For starters, James Wiseman has made multiple threes and shown his potential upside. On top of that, Stephen Curry has clearly shown an urge to win, hopefully sparking the Warriors’ young guns along the way.

That said, let’s dive into three players that have shown enough to deserve more minutes moving forward.
