For everything that’s changed since the Golden State Warriors first burst onto the scene as championship contenders a decade ago, there’s one statistic that paints them in a positive light year-after-year: points created off cuts. Eager to join in on the fun, Pat Spencer helps organize Golden State’s trademark “split action” set, delivering a high-post pass before racing through the floor’s middle, this time receiving possession with a full head of steam. Too powerful in his liftoff for Walker Kessler to dare contain, Spencer reaches back, delivering an unforgiving one-handed facial that leaves even the Utah Jazz’s home crowd in a stunned murmur. Once upon a time a record-setting lacrosse star, Spencer put his versatility and athleticism on full display during February 5, 2025’s narrow loss. Making strong use of his 14-minute appearance, Spencer finished with seven points (on three-of-six shooting), four rebounds, and four assists. · Feb 6, 2025
