Warriors Veteran Gets Emotional After Teammate Suffers Injury

Golden State Warriors veteran De'Anthony Melton expressed deep emotion following a left hamstring injury suffered by teammate Brandon Williams. Williams exited during the first quarter of the Warriors' 138-87 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans and did not return. Head coach Steve Kerr called the injury a major concern, confirming that an MRI is scheduled to determine the severity.

Williams has provided consistent bench production this season, averaging 10.4 points, 2.3 assists, and 2.1 rebounds per game. A potential absence would further stretch Golden State's rotation, which is already missing Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody, and Will Richard. The Warriors host the Houston Rockets on Wednesday following their eighth consecutive victory.
