Warriors fans, who had been used to Finals appearences for five straight year, might have to go another season without the playoffs. Though Curry is back on the court, fans are aware Kelly Oubre Jr and Andrew Wiggins are no Thompson and Kevin Durant. Curry's courtside reactions have gone viral since then, where the three-time NBA champion is seen pointing or shocked at the team's loss.
"Curry realizing he went from KD and Klay to Wiggins and Oubre," wrote one fan after the Bucks loss. Another predicted that the team will not make it to the playoffs, to which people agreed, speculating a top three pick once again.
