Before heading back on the road for two games, the Golden State Warriors welcomed the Miami Heat to San Francisco’s Chase Center on Monday.
Although buzz around Klay Thompson’s potential return headlined Monday’s NBA news cycle, the Warriors still had to take care of business on the court against a tough Heat squad led by Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry and Tyler Herro.
After pushing to a double-figure advantage at times, the Warriors could stretch their lead against the Heat throughout the contest. Miami continued to answer Golden State’s runs with counter punches.
Yet, the Warriors were able to hold off the Heat behind a strong performance off the bench and 39 team assists. Following a 115-108 win against Miami, Golden State improved to a league-best 29-7.
Here is a look at the Warriors’ report card with player grades and a game ball award.
