Kyle Anderson · Among the elder statesmen on the Golden State Warriors’ roster, 10-year veteran Kyle Anderson volunteered to offer his new teammates a brief “Training 101” on the numerous ways in which an offensive rebound can be acquired. Beginning his masterclass by showcasing the “hard way,” Anderson — pairing an advantageous angle against Kris Murray’s boxout with a fortuitous bounce — envelopes a misfired free throw, swinging it back to the perimeter for a teammate's reasonable 3-point look. Prepared to now present a slightly-easier approach, Anderson, at the right place at the right time, allows a ricocheted ball to fall into his grasp for a pair of prosperous putback points. Nicknamed “Slow Mo,” Anderson helped Golden State be anything but, contributing to a 36-point season-opening demonstration win over the Portland Trail Blazers on October 23, 2024. The do-it-all swingman’s blue-and-gold debut would feature two points (on one-of-two shooting), five rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block in 15 minutes. · State of Mint
