NOTES/QUOTES:
• Chris Paul had his right ring finger taped up after the opener. Has it taped up again at shootaround in Sacramento this morning. Said he will be fine. “Just bruised it.” Not on injury report tonight. (Anthony Slater)
• Klay Thompson doesn’t have an extension deadline, but does seem like talks are tabled with the season here: “I’m more focused on the daily dedication it takes to do this job. I’m not really worried about an extension right now. Trust will all play itself out…” (Anthony Slater)
• On savoring this season: “Hell, yeah. You never know what’s going to happen, so yeah, I’m gonna savor this as much as I can. Especially this uniform. I was here before it was sweet. Before 4 championships. I was here for 23 wins. I was here building the foundation. So yea, I’ma savor it. The world thinks it’s sweet when they look at the Warriors but it’s not always been like this… I’ma savor the heck out of it.” (Ros Gold-Onwude)
• Klay Thompson intends to play both sides: “I’m playing as many games as I can. Hopefully that’s toward the 70s. It’d be a goal of mine. 82 might be hard, but, shoot, why not shoot for high 70s?” (Anthony Slater)
• De’Aaron Fox on signing with Curry Brand: “This is one of the best shoes that I’ve worn… [Curry] wears the same ankle braces and the shoe is kind of built in for that. It was extremely comfortable…” (Brenden Nunes)
• Domantas Sabonis on his jumpshot: “I’m the hub of the offense who’s got to get guys open, it runs through me. If I’m there all day shooting jump shots, our offense isn’t what it was last year. I’ve got to pick and choose my spots.” (Brenden Nunes)
• Sabonis mentioned physicality as something about the Warriors’ defense, missing Draymond as their “quarterback”, and “there’s two of them” when asked about Chris Paul’s impact on GSW’s backcourt. Also on Game 7, “it’s been a long summer… you kinda wash it away.”
• Music at GSW shootaround: “Dedication” by Nipsey Hussle f. Kendrick Lamar
