The Golden State Warriors' Latest Title Might Be Their Most Surprising

Posted Jun 22, 2022
For the fourth time in eight seasons, the Golden State Warriors are NBA champions. This latest title comes after a two-year interregnum during which the Warriors scarcely resembled the juggernaut that ran through the league from 2015-19. Golden State went 15-50 during the pandemic-shortened 2019-20 season and was not even invited to the NBA bubble. (FiveThirtyEight)
