With the Golden State Warriors on the outside of the Orlando Bubble edition of the postseason, Warriors Wire is checking in with former members of the Dubs at Disney World.
In-game two against the Celtics, Golden State’s former sixth man Andre Iguodala went scoreless in a postseason-low seven minutes. Prior to game two, Iguodala was averaging 20.2 minutes per game in Miami’s 2020 playoff run. Iguodala’s only mark on the stat sheet came on a single assist in the second quarter of the contest.
Despite Iguodala’s minimal night in the boxscore, the Heat were able to manufacture a gritty 17 point comeback against the Celtics. Miami roared back in the third quarter, outscoring Boston 37-17.
