  • X Anthony Slater (@anthonyVslater) · Report ·

    The Warriors will get back their veterans tomorrow night in Denver. Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Al Horford are cleared vs Nuggets. So is Brandin Podziemski. All four missed the Phoenix loss. Gui Santos is questionable. Brandon Williams and Charles Bassey are probable.

    The host said the team's 'two point guards, I guess, technically' were Brandon Williams and De'Anthony Melton. He called Williams not a natural point guard, though he thought Williams did his best.

    Some Warriors are starting because there is nobody else. Brandon Williams started and played well, and Will Richard was called 'kind of good'.

    • Brandon Williams missed shots and played only five minutes in the first three quarters. at 7:09
    • Host objects to the rotation: De'Anthony Melton plays twice as much as Brandon Williams, and Georges Niang comes in before Gui Santos. at 7:25
    • Host's view: with the roster this short-handed, Gui Santos, Brandon Williams, and to an extent Will Richard have to be counted on much more. Williams and Santos are the bench players who bring energy. at 9:53

  • Podcast Isaac Harris, Locked On Mavericks · Analysis · name not confirmed around the league

    The host's analysis: in his rookie season, Cooper Flagg (19) played off ball handlers who weren't the best: Brandon Williams, D'Angelo Russell and a player heard as Ryan Nembhard.

    • Charlie Walter: Brandon Williams had a poor opener: 3-of-12 shooting with a couple of turnovers, though he made all his free throws. The host pushes back on calls to give him more minutes. at 7:42
    • Charlie Walter: Host opinion: he likes how Brandon Williams attacks, since few Warriors can beat defenders off the dribble. But he sees relying on Williams as part of the problem. at 8:02

    A co-host's remark about 'Brandon Williams, $2 million minimum' was taken as a clear sign that Marshall is the point guard.

    • Matt Kolsky: A host thinks Gary Payton II, De'Anthony Melton and Brandon Williams are all in the rotation. at 5:12
    • The hosts said Payton, Melton and Williams are all the same size, are not wings and are not natural shooters. Williams is not a shooter and Payton is streaky. As a result, the team is very short on size and wing play until reinforcements arrive. at 5:21

    • The host's rotation rule for when Curry sits: one of Brandon Williams, Curry or Yaxel Lendeborg should be on the floor at all times. He adds that Brandin Podziemski can also help. at 16:18
    • The host suggests playing more Brandon Williams than you probably want to, as the answer to scoring when Curry is off the floor. at 33:46

    • Brandon Williams had 19 points on 7 of 8 shooting but 5 turnovers; the host calls being out of control his weakness. Host says he is clearly one of the team's 7-8 best players and will carve out a role. at 27:20

    • Host: few players can create a mismatch against Yaxel Lendeborg. By contrast, he says Brandon Williams lacks the size to defend bigger point guards. at 9:45
    • Host does not think Dalen Terry has a chance to beat out Brandon Williams in camp. Williams was the one cuttable contract and is not guaranteed until opening night. at 18:30
    • Host: Brandon Williams was about the team's best player in the first preseason game against the Clippers and was impressive against the Lakers. at 18:43
    • Host: Brandon Williams is clearly a rotation piece. He calls him a quick guard who gets downhill, which the Warriors lack. at 19:22
