Super glad to see De’Anthony returning to his old self again before the ACL injury and what a solid performance. Hope he keeps it up health wise because he is going to be crucial for the Dubs moving forward.
a few more pixels wouldn’t have hurt

After a slow start likley due to rust having missed basically a calendar year.
Melton since the Christmas day game against the Lakers (6 games) :
* 12.2 pts 4.2 reb 1.5 ast 1.7 stl , 47/40/78 shooting splits in 24 minutes with a +/- of +47
That’s a Per 36 : 18.3 pts 6.3 reb 2.3 ast 2.6 stl.
On high efficiency shooting while also playing good defense too. Of course I doubt Melton will ever average 36 minutes a game with the Warriors or with any team going forward in his career due to all his injuries but this shows how big of an impact he can be when he’s on the court hitting on all cylinders.
If Melton can stay even remotely healthy he definitely should be in any closing line up the rest of this season as he could be the best 2 way player on the Warriors. Only other candidate would be Butler but I don’t think Butler at his age is the defender that Melton is and certainly isn’t the defender he was a couple of years ago with the Heat let alone with the Bulls, Timberwolves, and 76ers.
A closing 5 of Curry, Melton, Butler with hopefully either Green/Porter or Davis could be really interesting come the playoffs.
Thank you man we missed you last season
De’Anthony Monta!
Wiggins-esque
Is it possible to use a Melton pic with even less resolution?
goes to show we really need a secondary scorer. jimmy works best as a third option. we only win when one of the other guys goes off
We would’ve ran through the playoffs if we had a healthy Melton and Curry last year.
his pop off dribble and finishing are very needed.

Melton’s injury slump is over!! (hopefully).
