And... the Warriors wake up Sunday morning to find themselves in 5th place thanks to Clippers taking the L in the Big Easy Saturday night.
It appears based on Dallas taking the L in Miami, that the Warriors have 99%+ guaranteed themselves they will not miss the post-season given their tie-breaker over Mavericks, Pelicans, and that they will get over OKC by winning on Tuesday. They can now finish anywhere from #5 to #10, with it looking like #6 the most likely, 10th a remote possibility.
It's amazing how many seeding outcomes are still possible with just a week left in the regular season.
And it seems the tea leaves are suggesting Andrew Wiggins will in fact be returning. One would think he would want a game or two to play before the play-offs start, so might we see him back Friday night in Sacramento, or next Sunday in Portland? Or could it be that the team wants to get him on the floor for the last home game of the season to hear the support of the fans at Chase Center, and that means a Tuesday night return?
