With the Golden State Warriors eliminated from the league’s Orlando Bubble before it began, Warriors Wire is checking in with former members of the Dubs at Disney World.
As the NBA’s Conference Finals are set into motion, a small handful of ex-Warriors are still available inside the Bubble. On Tuesday, former Golden State sixth man Andre Iguodala laced up for the Miami Heat in game one of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics.
In 15 minutes off the bench in the opening game against Boston, Iguodala’s only points came from beyond the arc. As the game was pushed into overtime, the 2015 NBA Finals Most Valuable Player tallied three points on 1-of-3 shooting from the field with a rebound, an assist, a block and a steal.
With only seconds left in overtime, An incredible game-saving block by Miami’s Bam Adebayo over Jayson Tatum sealed the game for the Heat, 117-114.
