Golden State has been cruising to the lead of the Western Conference alone in the early part of the season. It was not easily expected before the regular season opened.
There are several factors that contribute to the team's cruising. This includes players' net performance. Ahead of this season, Golden State has hired Buddy Hield, D&Sunny Melton, and Kyle Anderson.
Melton, whose contribution to both offense and defense was high, played in six games, averaging 10.3 points and a three-point success rate of 37.1%. In particular, he started in two games just before his injury and averaged 16.5 points and 7.0 rebounds, relieving Stephen Curry's burden.
Coach Steve Kerr also expressed deep trust in Melton and expressed his intention to continue using him as a starter. However, his plans have been stalled.
Melton, who was absent due to a sprained cruciate ligament, was diagnosed as best to perform surgery on the injured area during further examination. Melton, who underwent a cruciate ligament surgery with a considerable period of rehabilitation, will not be able to play for the rest of the season.
"D-N. Sunny Melton, who missed two games with a sprained left cruciate ligament, underwent additional tests to determine the extent of his injury. The tests showed that it is best to perform cruciate ligament surgery. He will undergo surgery in the near future and will be absent for the rest of the season," the Golden State team said.
Melton, who played in only 38 games last season due to his injury, is all the more regrettable. He seemed to be playing well as a transfer to Golden State, but he had a long hiatus due to the surgery.
