JaMychal Green showed out against Mavericks; will he get more playing time?

JaMychal Green had two blocks and 14 points in Golden State Warriors win over Dallas Mavericks

SAN FRANCISCO — The Warriors were starting to pull away from the Dallas Mavericks by the second quarter, taking a 15-point lead with just under five minutes to go in the first half.

Enter JaMychal Green, who stuffed Spencer Dinwiddie’s layup attempt with one of his two weak-side blocks to help secure the Warriors’ 15-point lead at the half and eventual 119-113 win on Saturday night. “I thought JaMychal was our player of the game in terms of what he provided in his minutes,” coach Steve Kerr said. “Just the toughness inside, the scoring, made some good defensive plays. That position was manned well by JaMychal, Looney and Draymond .”

The three-guard lineup featuring Curry, Jordan Poole, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Draymond at the five wasn’t providing the spark the Warriors’ staff had hoped — producing a modest plus-2.9 net rating compared to the Looney lineup’s plus-21.3.
