San Francisco, CA – Headed into a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves the Golden State Warriors have a three-game win streak. It has been the Dubs' best stretch of basketball since Klay Thompson rejoined the team, and it all could've started with Stephen Curry's game-winner against the Houston Rockets.
At Thursday's shootaround, Otto Porter Jr. talked with the media about the team getting back on track.
“We're just figuring out ways to play together and make sure that we play Warriors basketball and every game since that buzzer-beater Steph (Curry) hit, we're trying to find ways to get our mojo back and get our legs up under us and play the Warriors way,” Porter Jr. told ClutchPoints.

The nine-year veteran is starting in place of injured Draymond Green. In a short amount of time, he's become a trusted member of this year's team. He's appeared in 41 games this season and has had 9 starts. In those games, he's averaged 8.4 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 40 percent from three, according to basketball-reference.com.
Porter Jr. has been the perfect fit for the team, his style of play complements everything the Warriors are about. If it wasn't for the veteran sharpshooter the Warriors wouldn't have the record they do today, and they are going to need him even more later in the season.
