Warriors' Draymond Green: Attempts most shots since Durant injury

Green scored 13 points (6-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt) along with eight rebounds, two assists, three steals and three blocked shots over 34 minutes in Wednesday's 99-86 loss to the Celtics.

Analysis:

Green's 15 field-goal attempts were the most he's taken in the four games the Warriors have played without Kevin Durant (knee). As the Warriors cope with the symptoms of playing without Durant -- most notably enhanced defensive pressure on Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson -- there will be times when a third source of scoring is required. Green's not afraid to fill that mantle, but doesn't have the accuracy of a Durant.
