[Slater] In preseason practice, Warriors assistant Stotts was instructing: to the 1st unit, get the ball to Curry/Butler. 2nd unit was nebulous: If neither Butler/Curry was on, they didn’t have much creation, so get the ball up to Spencer and run some PnR. No mention of Kuminga. He steamed about it.
From the Slater piece:
Full quote:
In a preseason practice in October, the Warriors were working through some late-clock offense. Assistant coach Terry Stotts was delivering instruction.
The directive to the first unit was simple: get the ball to Curry or Butler and let them create. The directive to the second unit was more nebulous, team sources said: If neither Butler nor Curry was on the court, they didn’t really have much creation, so get the ball up top to Pat Spencer and run some pick-and-roll. There was no mention of Kuminga. He steamed about it.
“Those are all triggers,” Turner told ESPN. “Pokes.”
