While the Golden State Warriors are busy with homework on the upcoming NBA Draft, the league is chugging along with the first round of the playoffs at Disney World.
With Golden State eliminated and no basketball on the Bay Area calendar, Warriors Wire is checking in with Dubs of the past inside the Orlando Bubble. On Saturday, Golden State’s former sixth man laced up for game three of the Miami Heat’s playoff series against the Indiana Pacers.
In 28 minutes off the bench, Andre Iguodala tallied three points on 1-of-2 shooting from the field. Iguodala’s only bucket came on a long-distance jumper from way beyond the arc. The 2015 NBA Finals Most Valuable Player added three rebounds and three assists against Indiana.
With the Heat clinging to a four-point game entering the final period, Erik Spoelstra had Iguodala on the floor for every minute of the fourth quarter. Iguodala has played the entire fourth quarter in the Heat’s first three postseason games.

While Iguodala’s scoring numbers were low, Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, Goran Dragic and Tyler Herro each recorded 20 or more points. In their game three victory over the Pacers, six of Miami’s nine players in Spoelstra’s rotation registered double-figures in scoring.
