Highlights: Warriors splash consecutive corner 3-pointers inside The Dubble at offseason minicamp

Before they wrapped up their offseason minicamp, a trio of Golden State Warriors splashed consecutive 3-pointers at practice in The Dubble.

After a seven month layoff, members of the Golden State Warriors recently made their long-awaited return to the practice floor at San Francisco’s Chase Center.

The Warriors spent the past two weeks living and practicing in a campus-like atmosphere in San Francisco. Outside of Steph Curry and Draymond Green, the Warriors roster met with five Santa Cruz G League Warriors inside “The Dubble.”

Following two weeks of drills, conditioning and scrimmages, the Warriors wrapped up camp on Tuesday. Before the voluntary offseason minicamp closed, the Warriors shared some footage from practice on Twitter.

In one video, Damion Lee, Jordan Poole, Zach Norvell and Jeremy Pargo did their best Splash Brothers impression, drilling a series of 3-pointers from the corner.

Although it didn’t make the cut for the beyond the arc montage above, Klay Thompson’s jumper received a standalone feature on Golden State’s Twitter.

Along with long-distance shooting, the Warriors shared a clip on Twitter that featured a moment from a scrimmage. In the highlight video, soon to be NBA sophomore Ky Bowman drove to the cup past G Leaguer Ryan Taylor for a right-handed layup.

While it’s not the same as game-action, with no hoops on the calendar, highlights from inside The Dubble might be the next best option for a dose of Golden State Warriors basketball.

Following the end of camp in San Francisco, members of the Warriors will have to wait until they can officially meet on the court as a team.

With minicamp over, the calendar has officially flipped to draft season in the Bay Area. Steve Kerr and Bob Myers will have until Nov. 18 to craft their plans for the No. 2 overall selection in the 2020 NBA Draft.

Warriors use Chase Center’s massive video scoreboard to play NBA 2K inside The Dubble

While the Warriors are inside The Dubble, Damion Lee and Juan Toscano-Anderson got to use Chase Center’s video scoreboard to play NBA 2K.

Over the last two weeks, members of the Golden State Warriors have returned to the Bay Area for a voluntary offseason minicamp.

Golden State’s players and coaches are residing in a campus-like atmosphere in San Francisco. When they’re not scrimmaging or going through drills on the court at practice, the Warriors need to fill their time inside the Bay Area edition of the Orlando Bubble.

On Saturday, a pair of Warriors transformed Chase Center into their own personal gaming room. Damion Lee and Juan Toscano-Anderson used the arena’s center court scoreboard monitor to play a game of NBA 2K. Lee and Toscano-Anderson matched up between the New Orleans Pelicans and the Indiana Pacers.

Chase Center’s video monitor is currently the largest center court display in the NBA, standing at 9,699 square feet.

If the players or coaches don’t decide to play NBA 2K, the Warriors have converted a room at Chase Center into a player’s lounge for the duration of camp. The lounge features games like cornhole, ping pong and pool.

The Warriors will close out camp inside “The Dubble” on Tuesday, Oct. 6.

Warriors open ‘The Dubble’ offseason voluntary minicamp at Chase Center

With similarities to the Orlando Bubble, the Golden State Warriors are nicknaming their voluntary minicamp at Chase Center “The Dubble.”

Without an invite to Disney World, the Golden State Warriors are opening their own edition of the Orlando Bubble. On Monday, the Warriors kicked off a voluntary offseason minicamp at Chase Center in San Francisco.

Before they hit the court, players and coaching staff will go through coronavirus testing and a 48-hour quarantine period. During the camp, members of the Warriors will stay in a campus-like atmosphere. With similarities to the Orlando Bubble, the Warriors are nicknaming their minicamp “The Dubble.”

Via @warriors on Twitter:

Following the tests and quarantine period, players will take the court at Chase Center for practices that are slated to include group workouts and team scrimmages. The voluntary minicamp will serve as Golden State’s first form of organized basketball activities since the league was put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic in March.

Although Stephen Curry and Draymond Green are considered doubtful for The Dubble due to family reasons, a familiar face will make his long-awaited return to Chase Center. After missing the entire 2019-20 season with a knee injury, Klay Thompson is expected to be on the floor.

With Thompson medically cleared to train without restrictions, Golden State’s minicamp will serve as his first chance to join 2019 newcomers Andrew Wiggins, Eric Paschall and Marquese Chriss on the court for practice.

The Warriors are scheduled to break camp on Oct. 6.
