Which Warriors Star Took Blame After Loss?The Golden State Warriors lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday.
Draymond Green - Gets sixth technical in lossGreen closed Wednesday's 105-101 loss to the Thunder with 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-8 3Pt), 13 rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one steal in 32 minutes.
ImpactAlthough Green recorded his second double-double of the season, he logged his sixth technical foul. He's inching closer to 16 technical fouls, which requires an automatic one-game suspension from the league.

Jonathan Kuminga - Logs 19 points in returnKuminga totaled 19 points (8-21 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 105-101 loss to the Thunder.
ImpactKuminga returned to action after battling an illness, and his insertion moved Andrew Wiggins over to the four and Draymond Green to center. This scheme represents Steve Kerr's small-ball approach that he utilized with success earlier in the season, but it wasn't as effective with Isaiah Hartenstein's imposing presence in the paint. Barring an injury or another illness, Kuminga should retain his role in the starting lineup moving forward.

Brandin Podziemski - Fills in for Curry with 12 pointsPodziemski finished with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one block across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 105-101 loss to Oklahoma City.
ImpactPodziemski stepped into the point guard role with Stephen Curry (knee) absent, but his result fell below his seasonal average. There's no timetable on Curry's return, although the injury isn't considered serious. Podziemski's fantasy impact is limited, and it would take a serious first-unit injury to make his stock rise.

Isaiah Hartenstein - Logs 14/14 double-doubleHartenstein registered 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 105-101 win over Golden State.
ImpactThe hits keep coming for Hartenstein, who is holding up the frontcourt with solid totals. The center is shooting up the fantasy ranks as Chet Holmgren's (hip) replacement with three consecutive double-doubles since his return to action.
