Kerr acknowledged Zubac’s impact, saying: “He got better and better… every time they needed a bucket, it was like they were getting one from him.”

Despite a late recovery with the appointment of Andrew Wiggins, the Warriors fell short. “I loved our fight‚” Kerr said, adding that forward Jonathan Kuminga and others had some momentum but were unable to maintain it against a well-prepared Clippers roster. While the Warriors manage Curry’s possible absence Kerr pointed out that Wiggins and the team’s depth are the key to adapting if Curry misses an extended period of time.
