Spoelstra started his career in the NBA as a video coordinator. At first, the videos were only viewed by the staff, but can now be viewed by all players at any point in time. Due to technological advancements, the change definitely came sooner than anticipated. Golden State Warriors' captain Stephen Curry is currently out for a few months due to a broken hand injury caused during the Warriors game against the Phoenix Suns in October. According to recent NBA reports, Curry has gone through a follow-up surgery to remove his first surgery pins and will be re-evaluated in February 2020. In the four games played this NBA season, Curry was averaging at 20.3 points, 5 rebounds and 6.5 assists. Klay Thompson might also miss the entire NBA 2019-20 season due to his ACL injury. Houston Rockets' star James Harden is currently averaging at 38 points, 6 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game. He scored an outstanding 60 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists for the Rockets against the Atlanta Hawks on December 1.
